Q: Can your menu, when placed in a master page, be propagated throughout an application's sub-folders
or will the html menu need to be added to each page separately?

A: If you don't want to create your menu on each page you can use a
server-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages from
templates on your server.

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) 2006, 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.)
];


The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

You can use cross frame menu. It allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages
that use frame-based structure. And it's not necessary to insert any code into all the pages -
just specify the additional parameters of the menu and initialize it.

To install the menu in a cross-frame mode, see more info here:

Q: Does your site navigation menu support RTL Pages? How hard it is to convert it this way?

A:   var dmRTL = 0;

Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>.


Q: How woud I make all the sub-menu’s height and text smaller in the css dhtml menu?


A: You can create Individual Item Style and assign it to each item insubmenu.

For example:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=10px","fontStyle=normal 9px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"],
];

and assign it to each item in submenu:
 ["|Item 7","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 8","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
you can also use standard <br> tags.
 ["|Home text<br>text","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", ],


Q: I think I am almost there.
I would like to know a couple of things.

Why the menu does not float?
Why I cannot centre the menu?


A: When you use floatable menu you can't use relative menu position.
So, if you use
  var absolutePos = 0;
and to center the menu you use <p> or <div> with the center alignment your menu won't float.
To center your floatable menu you should set absolute coordinates.
  var absolutePos = 1;
