Q: Is there any way to change the font size of the secondary and tertiary links but yet have a different font size for the primary links?
A: You can use different font style for each link on each level.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
Please, use Dhtml Tuner application to create individual styles.
For example:
// --- DHTML Tuner style names ---
var tstylesNames=["Individual Style 1","Individual Style 2","Individual Style 3","Individual Style 4","New Individual Style",];
var tXPStylesNames=["Individual Style 1",];
var tstyles = [
["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#FFFFFF,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 0 ["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#215DC6,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 1 ["tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 2
["tfontStyle=normal 8pt Tahoma","tfontColor=#013D6D,#5555FF"],
//style 3
["tfontStyle=bold 11px Bookman Old Style","tfontColor=#000000,#000000","tfontDecoration=none,underline"],
//style 4
];
var tmenuItems = [
["+DHTML Menus","", "images/xpicon1.gif", , , "DHTML Menus", , "0", , , , ],
//style 0

Q: Is there a way to capture which dhtml web menu item was clicked and store that information into a database?
A: See how you can find the ID of the clicked item:
var menuItems = [
["Home","javascript:alert(itVar.id)", "", "", "", "_self", "3"],
Q: As I have stated before, your Deluxe-Menu is very very good.
But there is allways room for improvement.
Is there any chance to see support for the following in Deluxe-Menu:
When I move the mousepointer above a menuitem and right-click I would like to see in the javascript contextual menu (the context menu provided by the browser):
Open Link in new window
Open Link in new tab
If the above is not possible or not something you want to enable.... then, there should be possible to make a workaround to make this work:
I see there is support for custom javascript contextual menus.....
.... is there any possibility to make a custom context menu that show above a menuitem and that show when right clicking on the menuitem.
Should hopefully be possible to create in such way that I create one context menu in javascript (the deluxe menu way... ) , but when clicking on "Open link in new window" from that custom menu, then the JS code should call a javascript function of mine (or yours), with a parameter related to the menuitem that was right-clicked...
And this javascript function should be able to resolve the actual URL (based on the input parameter rel. to the menuitem) and then open a new window using window.open()
If not possible to implement using the native browser context menu, then I belive it should be possible to do it using my workaround how to.....
Just a thought....
Any suggestions on how I can make the workaround work, or if maybe you could support the workaround in some way in future releases of Deluxe-Menu?
A: Yes, there is a workaround.
You can write your items in the following way:
["|<a href='http://www.domain.com' class="link">test test test</a>",""],
You should assign style for this link.
A.link {
...
}
A.link:hover {
...
}
Q: How do you specify different number of sub menu columns for each menu heading in the dhtml menu bar?
When I put var smColumns = 5; it changed it for both my multicolumn headings.
A: You should use Individual Submenu Styles, for example:
var menuStyles = [
["smColumns=3"],// 0 style
["smColumns=2"],// 1 style
];
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", "", "", ],
