Q: How do assign my own onclick events to menu options for the dhtml menubar?
I want do more than just redirect to an href.
A: Actually you can use your own Javascript code instead standard links.
For example:
var menuItems = [
["text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
or
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
Q: Is there a property in the data.js file - or any other file - where the pulldown menu can be hidden initially until needed?
A: You can hide the menu onload
document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility = "hidden";
And then show the menu when your user will be validated.
Q: I want to activate script pop up by a hyperlink.
A: Drop down menu items is an array of arrays. It has the following structure:
var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...
];
where target is target for an item link.
Available values: _self, _blank, _parent, _search, _top.
So you can set the target value _blank for the items you need.
For example:
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","http://deluxe-menu.com", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Installation","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Dynamic Functions","testlink.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Purchase","http://deluxe-menu.com/order-purchase.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Contact Us","testlink.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];

Q: I make an example of html menu, but when i use it with frameset then the menu not show completly.
Is this possible, perhaps by using a javascript call?
A: To initialize the cross frame menu you should call dm_initFrame() function
instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:
dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);
framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.
