Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions.
I want each tab in a hover tab menu has a different image,
the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image.
A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual Item Styles and assign them for your tabs.
var bstyles = [
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif",
"bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif",

Q: The AJAX sample for tree menu script on website does not have any styling applied at the moment.
I am assuming that it would support full styling with AJAX as well.
Is this correct?
A: You can use any style and templates for the AJAX sample.
Create a menu and set style you need using Individual Item Styles.
To enable AJAX Tree Menu use the following menu parameters:
var tajax=1;
Then set your menu in such way:
var tmenuItems = [
["Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "data-samples/data-ajax5.js", ],
["+Samples Gallery","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
["|Samples Block 1","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
["|Samples Block 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
["|Samples Block 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax.js", ],
];
Each .js file must contain menuItems variable for the submenu in the following format:
var tmenuItems = [
[text, link, icon1, icon2, icon2, tip, target, itemStyle, submenuStyle, jsFileName],
];
Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server that contains tmenuItems variable for the submenu.
For example:
var tmenuItems = [
["Home","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax2.js", ],
["Samples","", "", "", "", "Samples Tip", "", "", "", "data-samples/data-ajax4.js", ],
["Purchase","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "Purchase Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["Support","", "", "", "", "Support Tip", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Write Us","mailto:[email protected]", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Whenever I bring it into the program all I get is a text drop down navigation menu. What am I doing or not doing?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the drop down navigation menuinto your html page:
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
2. open the page in Frontpage
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>//your data file created in Deluxe Tuner
...
</body>
You should copy all engine files and images for the drop down navigation menu in "deluxe-menu.files/" folder and paste it in the same folder with you .html files.
Engine files:
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
That's all.
It is possible that you'll have errors in the preview but your drop down navigation menushould work fine in the browser.
