Q: I've recently purchased and implemented your menu. While it's definitely very good, I have a small issue I'm hoping you can help me resolve.
When running over regular http, the menu drops down and shows in front of any form select dropdowns as it should. However, when running over SSL (https), the menu shows up with the form select box in front of it.
Any help for fixing this would be greatly appreciated.
A: Please, check that you've set the following parameter:
var dmObjectsCheck=1;
Please, use dmenu_add.js file.

Q: What can I do to optimize the load time for dhtml rollover
and prevent reloading it from the server with every page reload.
A: You can try to use AJAX technology.
AJAX-like technology: data for submenus can be loaded "on-the-fly" from the server.
New parameter:
var tajax = 0/1; - disables/enables AJAX-like support
Current syntax for item parameters ( var tmenuItems):
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, iconExpanded, tip, target, itemStyleInd, itemXPStyleInd, jsFileName]
Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server with submenu items ( var tmenuItems).
Q: I am interested in buying your software for some web development I planning on doing.а Before I buy your software, I have a concern that I was hoping you could help me with.
I downloaded the trial version of the software and set up some menus.а However, when I load them with IE7, the information bar comes up and asks me if I want to run scripts or ActiveX controls.а Is there a way I can prevent this from happening?а Is there some setting I have chosen in one of the properties that is causing this to happen?
I am not interested in buying a license for this software if this is what is going to happen.а I really like the way I can modify just about anything in the menusЕ but having this pop up is not user friendly.а Please tell me there is a way to fix this.
A: Please, see security preferences: IE/Tool/Internet Options
Make sure that Active content is enabled.
You should check your Security Settings.
There is no way to enable these settings automatically.
Q: I have a issue involving the location of the files.
What is the correct method of referencing the webroot (document root) in the deluxe tuner?
I ask because I have some pages that are in a sub folder on the server.
eg. index page is http://www.domain.com/index.html
but another page might be at
http://www.domain.com/somedir/somepage.html
And then the references do not work.
Currently I am editing the data.js file after saving it in deluxe tuner.
A: If you want to use relative paths you should write your links in thefollowing way.
If you have, for example such file structure:
deluxe-menu_files/
dmenu.js
data.js
images/
html_pages/
page1.html
page2.html
index.html
So, you should write write all your paths concerning index.html file.
For example, you paths will be:
["HOME","html_pages/page1.html", , , , "_self", "-1", , , ],
["ABOUT US","html_pages/page2.html", , , , , , , , ],
Unfortunately, Deluxe Tuner can't do it automatically. You shouldcorrect your paths manually.
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.
