Q: How do I make the submenus sticky i.e. they will not close even when the mouse goes to somewhere else on the page?
A: I've checked your menu in all browsers. I can't see such problem.
You can try to adjust these parameters:
var transDuration=200; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's showing.
var transDuration2=100; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's hiding.
Q: I did not make anything complex - simply added a couple of menu items. As you may see the java swing popup menu being expanded overlaps with the rest of the table. I guess I am just not doing something right since it is a trivial case ...
A: Now you're using absolute position for the menu:
var tabsolute=1;
You should use relative position.
Q: I've just put together a new drop down menu box for one of the sites I'm working on and whilst in IE it works fine, in FF the drop down menu box is not appearing over the Flash banner.
I don't understand why as this was put together with the latest version of Deluxe Menu - my understanding was that this issue was resolved a while back?
Can you help me sort this.
A: See fix for flash in Firefox here:

Q: We are facing some problem, in our css drop menu. Please Advise -
When we used "Helvetica" font in deluxe menu, the css drop menu expand, if the above font not installed in user machine.
I would please request you to kindly assist me on the same as the client is getting impatient.
A: It is normal behaviour if there is no such font on the user machine.
You can try to write fonts in the following way:
"fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS'"
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackImage=top.files/,top.files/menuhoverbg.gif","fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, , Trebuchet MS'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],
["itemBackColor=#504B48,#7E7666","fontStyle='bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS','bold 12px HelveticaNeue Condensed, Trebuchet MS'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#ffffff"],
];
Find another font similar to your font and write it through a comma.If there will be no HelveticaNeue Condensed font on the user machinethe font will be Trebuchet MS.
You should choose the second font among the following fonts:
Arial
Tahoma
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
These fonts are installed on the most of windows computers.
