Q: I have published on a test page you can see herebelow a test with the javascript pull down menu.
With IE, it works fine, the menu is displayed over the flash animation.
With Firefox, the flash animation disappears and comes back if I mouve the mouse out of the menu.
I have read the FAQs, but I can not see any document on this. Can you help me in understanding and solving the problem ?
A: You should add opaque parameters to OBJECT and EMBED tags.

Q: Hello I am testing your product Deluxe Menu, and want to create a special tree-menu.
I have a question:
Is it possible to have two icons in front of each dhtml menu item?
I need two icons in front of each menu-item that will symbolize an alarm and a sabotage-alarm.
I want to use animated gifs on these so that I can visualize alarm and sabotage on each menu-item.
But I also need an icon on the right side of the menu to show if the menu-item is expanded or not.
I want the structure to be like this:
Icon | icon а| Main menuitem1а | expandedicon
Icon | icon | sub menuitem1 | expandedicon
Icon | icon | sub menuitem1.1 | expandedicon
Icon | icon | sub menuitem1.2 | expandedicon
Icon | icon | sub menuitem2 | expandedicon
Icon | icon а| Main menuitem2а | expandedicon
Is this possible to achieve with your menu?
A: Yes, it is possible.
Actually you can use any html code within menu items.
["|<img src='default.files/icon1_so.gif' style='margin-right: 10px'>Home","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif","default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", ],
Q: When I click on a tab in the css drop down menu tabs it is not activate.
What is the setting to change this?
A: You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
based on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
from your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem= var bselectedSmItem= </script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, for example:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>>
Q: In javascriptcoding.
I have id of the submenu.
How can retrieve id of the parent menu?
A: You can try to use the following function
function dm_ext_getSubmenuParams (menuInd, submenuInd)
Returns submenu parameters in the array:
[submenu_id, items_count, parent_item_id, submenu_level, is_horizontal]
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
Using this function you can retrieve the parent_item_id.
