Q: I still do not understand your answer about the simple java menu arrows, which work in preview, but not on the website. The html is correct.

A: You have
  var arrowImageMain=["ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif","ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif"];
in your data js, so the arrows must be here
http://domain/ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif

you arrows is here
http://domain/menu/ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif

You can use
  var pathPrefix_img="menu/";

or change paths here
  var arrowImageMain=["ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif","ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif"]; --> menu/ss.files/arrow_sub5.gif



Q: The submenu should look identical to the main menu but it is not allowing this.
Even though parameters are set to 0 it is showing smart scroll and also not showing the sub menus how they should be.
I also notice and error in the templates window view when I am looking at the javascript onmouseover menu.


A: You've set the exact width for your submenus:

  var smHeight="21px"; // it is the height of the whole submenu

It is not right.

Try to write:
  var smHeight="";

> I also notice and error in the templates window view when I am looking
> at the menu.

Now you have:

  var pressedItem="";

It is not correct. Try to set:

  var pressedItem="-2";

See the attached example.


Q: Where can I give the body of the javascript method which I use in cool dhtml menu?


A: You can define functions after menuItems, before you call dm_init();function.

  var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_function(...)", ...]
];

Where your_function(...):

function your_function(...)
{
.....
}


Q: I'm wondering if you can use the Link Item of the Deluxe Menu to have ASP code, similar to yoru FAQ below, only replacing the Javascript with ASP?

Q: I want to use Javascript instead of usual links for menu items. How can I do that? A: To do that you should add a function word "javascript" in the URL field of an item, e.g.:

  var menuItems = [
[text, "javascript:alert('Hello, world!')", icon1, icon2],
];
