Q: I don't know anything about what JavaScript is all about...and I'm currently trying to get a menu that will float as I scroll down the page.
I saw the examples you have and I'd love to be able to do that on my website, but I don't understand the scripting that you have written there.
Like, what makes it float from this text...
A: If you want a floatable menu, you should set an absolute position forthe menu and paste the following code into your html page:
Paste the following code into <head> tag
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
Then set coordinates of top-left menu corner in the data .js file, forexample:
var absolutePos=1;
var posX=30;
var posY=110;
Then set var floatable=1.
The parameter floatable=1 makes a floatable menu.
Also you can change any of menu parameters inside data .js file.
Q: We need to place a vertical menu on the right of our page, and have the subnav options popout on the LEFT of the vertical navbar.
Can you script handle this?
A: Yes, you can create such menu with Deluxe Menu.
Please, see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/ways-showing-submenus-sample.html
You should set this parameter.
Submenus can be shown in 4 ways. More info you can find here:

Q: We are experimenting with your library but can't seem to make it work. I am getting "d_ddm is undefined" in dmenu_popup.js menu script.
Could you tell me what we are doing wrong?
A: You should change
onClick="return dm_popup(1, 500, event);
to
onClick="return dm_popup(0, 500, event);
If you have only one menu on the page your menuInd = 0;
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.
