Q: I'm looking at purchasing your product but have one small problem. I'm using the expandable menu and would like to have the menu save the state when reloading or refreshing the browser.
Can this be done with the expandable menu? If so, what is the syntax?
A: I advise you to use Deluxe Tree, http://deluxe-tree.com/. This is a newer version of Dhtml TreeMenu.
You should use the following parameter:
var tsaveState = 1;
Example, you can find here:

Q: The nav is currently to the left of a flash animated area.
And when a link in the dropdown menu is hovered upon the box opens
but the flash turns white below the nav box.
A: You should add "opaque" parameter for <object> and <embed> tags.
See, how you should install flash on your pages.
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0"
height="150" width="800">
<param name="movie" value="2008 flash.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<embed src="flash_files/2008%2520flash.swf" quality="high" wmode="opaque"

</object>
Submenus will overlap flash correctly in that case.Q: I have the cursor set as pointer – on some of the top menu items there is no link behind it yet the cursor still turns to a pointer.
Is there any way to have it so it only becomes a pointer if there is a link?
A: Unfortunately, you can set different cursor type for the menu items.
Q: Is it possible to expand thetree menu javascript in a predefined way?
Lets say, Item 1 expanded, Item 2 not expanded, anyway, it should look like I select it in the ITEMS program window.
Now it is exanded completely or not, like I use the switch in the common parameters.
A: You can expand some items by default.
Add '+' sign before items text in that case:
["+Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "deluxe-tree.files/xpicon1_s.gif", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "", ],
["|Home","testlink.htm", "deluxe-tree.files/icon1_s.gif", "deluxe-tree.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", "data-new.js", ],
"Deluxe Tree: XP Style" item will be expanded by default in that case.
Use var texpanded=1; parameter to expand all menu items by default.
Use function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand) API function to expand the specificmenu items dynamically:
