Q: Just wondering if it's possible to have the sub menu of my collapsible dhtml menu that appear when the "+" is clicked stay open when another page loads. I tried downloading the trial version & can't get that to happen.
Click on "web development" and then "web design portfolio" - when the new page loads the menu closes. Is it possible to have it remember which sub menus were showing when the new page loads?

Q: Things are mostly working great. I want my menu to appear centered at the top the page. Here's the code:
<table style="text-align: left; width: 100%;" border="0" cellpadding="2"cellspacing="2">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 100%; text-align: center;"><script type="text/javascript" src="navbar.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
The table appears at the far left edge of the window. I tried with both absolute (x=20, y=10) and relative (both x and y unset) coordinates. Help!
A: If you want to center the menu paste itwithin the <div > or <table> with a static position and specify a center alignment for it, for example:
<DIV align=center>
<SCRIPT src="data/data.js" type=text/javascript>
</SCRIPT>
</DIV>
<table width=800>
<tr>
<td align=center width=600> </tr>
</table>
Please, set exact value for var menuWidth parameter, for example:
var menuWidth = "600px";
This can help to align your menu correctly in all browsers.
Try also to specify units in "px".
Set also:
var absolutePos = 0;
Q: Where do I increase the width of the javascript menu bars for each entry? Some of my links are a bit longer than the image and it's causing it to use part of another gif to cover it. Sorry not sure if I even explained that right. Let me know if this makes sense.
A: I suppose that you're using Vista style templates.
The width of vista images is 94px. If the width of your menu itemis wider than 94px you should correct the width of the images in anygraph editor, for example in Photoshop. You should set the width ofthese images 120px and set the following parameter:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=bold 10pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#F8FF95","itemBackImage=columbine.files/btn_orange.gif,columbine.files/btn_orange2.gif"],
];
You can also try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
