Q: I'm wondering if you can use the Link Item of the Deluxe Menu to have ASP code, similar to yoru FAQ below, only replacing the Javascript with ASP?
Q: I want to use Javascript instead of usual links for menu items. How can I do that? A: To do that you should add a function word "javascript" in the URL field of an item, e.g.:
var menuItems = [
[text, "javascript:alert('Hello, world!')", icon1, icon2],
];
A: Thanks for your interest in our products.
You can use any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
You can find the example with PHP here:

Q: I have another question regarding the popup window. I need to use an iframe within the popup window. Is there any way I can close the dhtml popup from the page loaded within the iframe?
A: You can close the popup using the following function:
document.getElementById('win').hide();
Unfortunately it won't work if you use iframe as window content.
You open another page in the popup (in Iframe) so you cannot accessdocument.getElementById('win').hide();
element which is situated on the first page.
When you use text or object_id as window content the content of the popup will be situatedon the same page so you can access document.getElementById('win') element and hide it.
There is a workaround.
Use text as content type and add the following code inside popup:
<a onclick="document.getElementById('win').hide();">...</a> <iframe></iframe>
Your link will work in that case.
Q: Click on the option "telefoonlijst" and a submenu has to pop-down… whay is this done not OVER the other object (e.e. the 'frameDESKTOP')
Click index2.htm to see the code is working when the top-frame is 120 pix large!
A: Please, see how you should install the menu in cross-frame mode:

Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only. It can't work within nested framesets.
Notice that you should add dmenu_cf.js file in the folder where your menu is created in.

A: Unfortunately it is not possible to highlight the pressed menu submenu dhtml itemin Deluxe Menu now. You can highlight the top items only.
