Q: Is there a javascript API for the expandable menu tree to fire an user click event so the browser will load proper page accordingly? I looked around the current APIs from your site and could not find one.
Please advise.
A: You can use dtreet_ext_userClick (itemID) function.
See more info:

Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links and html code inside item text. For example:
var tmenuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
or
var tmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='urlSubstitution(\'transco/sheet.asp?stype=1\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];
Q: I'm interested in using Deluxe menu for our website. It appearseverything is exactly what I want, but I do have one question.
Can I pass a selection from cascading navigation bar to a form?
A: Deluxe Menus doesn't have such a feature now.
But you are able to paste any html code within items.
For example:
var menuItems = [
...
["<nobr><FORM method=GET action='http://www.google.com/custom'>
<input name='as_q' value='searchthe web' size=15 style='font-size:10'>
<INPUT type=hidden name=cof value='LW:144;L:http://domain.edu/images/sulogo.gif;
LH:45;AH:center;GL:0;S:http://domain.edu;AWFID:e01cb67b8afe383e;'></form></nobr>","",

You should write your own code within menuItem.Q: It seems like that I'm unable to pull data from Word, Excel, JPG's etc into the floating window?
A: You can use the following content for the popup window:
Iframe(url);
Object_id;
text(html content).
So, to add image/text inside the popup window you should set:
winContent - Html Content
and add the following tag.
<img src="images/img.jpg" alt="screen">
<p align="right"> Text text .... </p>
To add content from the excel file you can export it to html file andthen set the following parameter:
winContent - Iframe(url)
data.html
and then enter the name of the html file with your excel data
Q: We are now working with Deluxe Menu and can't get our favorite template to link. It is the one you call animated-icons
The example you gave has no links, but when we try to add links to it (in the 2nd parameter of any menu item), NOTHING happens.
It's not a broken link, it just wont do ANYTHING.
A: See your menu parameters. Now you have:
var itemTarget="";
var statusString="string";
You should set this parameters:
var itemTarget="_self";
var statusString="link";
