Q: But given the sample on
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html#ind
we want to delete menuentry 'Sample1' and do
dm_ext_deleteItem(2, 4, 0)
This raises an error but according to your javascript menu master manual the first argument should be the menuindex ....which is 2 in our opinion.
A: See, if you have several menus on your page they will have differentID's, for example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data1.js"></script> //ID=0
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data2.js"></script> //ID=1
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data3.js"></script> //ID=2
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu/data4.js"></script> //ID=3
So, if you have only one menu on your test page you should use ID=0Q: I am using your Deluxe Tabs software, and I am simply trying to implement your dhtml menu samples:
http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-3.html
I have downloaded the trial software and built my tabs, but at this point, all I have is the tabs... I need the entire box under the tabs, and I need to be able to insert my content for each tab.
Please explain to me how to use your dhtml menu samples.
A: You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.
See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!

Q: I recently purchased DeluxeMenu for a project I'm working on and a new requirement has been submitted.
I am looking for a way to dynamically affectthe contents of menu javascripts
after it's been rendered(displayed) in the browser.
Can this be accomplished with this component?
A: 1) You can use API functions to affect items dynamically:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html
2) Generate your menu items dynamically from database.
Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,
you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

A: See how you can find the ID of the clicked item:
var menuItems = [
["Home","javascript:alert(itVar.id)", "", "", "", "_self", "3"],
