Q: The items of the flash drop down menu hides behind the video. Do you have other suggestions?
A: You should add "opaque" parameter for <object> and <embed> tags, for example:
<object width="750" height="435">
<param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_-OiQygm2uU&hl=en&fs=1&autoplay=1" name="movie"/>
<param value="true" name="allowFullScreen"/>
<param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess"/>
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<embed width="750" height="435" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="opaque" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_-OiQygm2uU&hl=en&fs=1&autoplay=1"/>
</object>
Q: Are vertical menus also supported, because I don't see any in the javascript menu examples?
A: Yes, you can create vertical menu with Deluxe Menu.
You should set this parameter:
var isHorizontal=0;
See one of the javascript menu examples here:

Q: I need to include backgroundimages for my navigation, so I put them in the same folder where the "data.js" file can be found. I am using the deluxe tuner in order to call these files and it looks great in the preview. As soon as I save the file and load it in the browser, the background images are missing.
Any solutions for this problem?
A: Now you have such paths for all your images data.files/image.gif
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav01_off.gif,data.files/nav01_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav02_off.gif,data.files/nav02_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav03_off.gif,data.files/nav03_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav04_off.gif,data.files/nav04_off.gif"],
["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav05_off.gif,data.files/nav05_off.gif"],
];
But you don't have images in "data.files/" folder. That's why youcan't see them.
Please, check all your paths.
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: I can't get Cyrillic text in my free javascript dropdown menu. Where's the problem.

Click "Font" button in the text dialog and select Script : Cyrillic.
