Q: The problem is now that I have a scroll bar in the main menus although there is nothing to scroll.
Do you have any ideas?
A: You've set the exact width and height for submenus.
var smWidth = "100";
var smHeight = "250px";
var menuStyles = [
["smWidth=220px","smHeight=250px"],
["smWidth=200px","smHeight=250px"],
["smWidth=120px","smHeight=250px"],
];
Try to write:
var smWidth = "";
var smHeight = "";
var menuStyles = [
[""],
[""],
[""],
];
There will be no scroll bar in the main menus.
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.
Q: My client wants their drop down navigation to lock into place when someone visits a page. Is there a way to do this?
Right now it disappears when you click the link.
A: I suppose that you're saying about submenus.
Try to set the pressed item using the following API function:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion, parentOpen)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a dynamic menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
parentOpen = true/false - open all submenus to show the selected item
See example here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Try to click 'Highlight "Product Info/Installation/Description ofFiles" item'.
You can also try to use the following parameter:
var smHidePause = 1000;
A delay (in ms) between mouse is moved from submenu and its closing.
You can make submenus to stay visible till you click outside the menu or scroll your page.
To enable this feature you should set this parameter in the following way: var smHidePause = -1; Q: Can you create/destroy tabs with only client side javascript (no return trips to the server)?
A: Deluxe Tabs is Javascript product. it means that it is executed on aclient side, not on a server side.
So, whatever server you'll use, youshould install the menu the same way.
