Q: I’m interested in buying your products.
I have no experience in programming, only know html/php.
How easy would it be to set up these mouseover menus?
I understand your explanation of copying scripts into the relevant html pages.
But what about inserting the menus? Do I have to program them myself?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial now. We'll try tocreate it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner application.
You can create any menu as you like in Deluxe Tuner.
You can use ready to use templates. You can find them in the templateswindow.
When you open Deluxe Tuner ( Deluxe Menu ) you can click "File/New"
and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" onthe main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
(you can alsouse local version of the site which you can find in the trial package
"Deluxe Menu / deluxe-menu.com /")

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems:

2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Add several rows into your html page.

<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
//data-deluxe-menu.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner.

</head>
<body>

A: You should set the following parameter:
var texpanded=0;
Check also that you don't have '+' sign before item's text in the top items, for example:
["+Home","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
...
["+Item1","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
Q: The first is that for some reason my item separator image will not show. I have tried everything.. and no matter what I do the image will not show. I designed a graphic that is 2 pixels high and is the width of the total menu. The first problem is that the graphic wont show at all.. and I do not know why. Secondly, I am now thinking that I would like to use the separator graphic on all levels of the menu.. but this creates a another issue.. as the width of the submenus varies based on the length of the text displayed. How then can I have a separator image work in the submenus?
A: Try to write you Item Styles so:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBorderColor=#D7F5FE,#FFFFFF",
"fontColor=#A0A0A0,#A0A0A0","fontDecoration=none,none"],
["itemBackColor=#6DD0FE,#00ACFC","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",
"itemBorderColor=#6DD0FE,#FFFFFF"],
];
See the normal item border color.
You didn't paste separator into your menuItems.
["-",],
Q: What can you tell me about the compatibility with Yahoo SiteBuilder. I like the navigator bars they offer, but there are no drop-down menus and you seem to offer a wonderful array of options.
Please let me know if it is worth my time to give you a try.
A: Unfortunately, we don't provide support by phone, e-mail only.
Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/Yahoo SiteBuilder extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see: http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
That's all.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application
(included into the trial package): http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-tuner-info.html
Please, try a trial version.
