Q: Hello, I’ve set my menus up so that they are positioned on my page within a container div (not using the positioning built into the menu script).
I am also trying to use the autoscroll feature as some of the submenus are quite long. The autoscroll doesn’t seem to work with the css positioning though.
I also tried to size the submenus to force them small and thus to scroll with no luck.
The scrolling works fine when I pull the menus out of the container div and just place them in the flow of the page.
Am I doing something wrong or are these two features incompatible with each other.
A: Unfortunately, it is really so. Submenu scrolling doesn't work with css. We'll try to fix it in the future versions.
You can try to use multicolomn submenus.

Q: I'm in search for a product like "Deluxe Menu".
Before buying your software, I'd need to know if I can use images (eg *.jpgs) within rollover drop menu instead of just text; my menu items need to be images. Does "Deluxe Menu" support this?
A: Yes, you can create image-based rollover drop menu.
If item text is empty, icon fields will be used as item images.
For example:
["", "index.html", "itemImageNormal.gif", "itemImageOver.gif", "Home Page"]
Q: Is there any way through script to call the function that would be called if the user clicked a dhtml tabbed menu?
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: The xml drop down menu gets at the back of the flash..Can you tell us the problem?
A: You can try to add the following parameters for flash objects:
<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=opaque> and WMODE="opaque" for <EMBED>
It allows to overlap a flash movie by other layers.
For example:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="40">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu.swf">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=best>
<PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#FFFFFF>
lt;param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<EMBED src="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu.swf" quality=best wmode="opaque" bgcolor=#FFFFFF WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="40"NAME="data-samples/flash-deluxe-menu" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
