Q: We have been using a free javascript for a couple of years but now we would like to have a functionality that our existing js is missing.
Basically, we need the ordinary tree view javascript with "+" and "-" that highlights the node clicked. No problem with that I suppose... BUT, we have a bunch of pages with internal links, linking the visitor to other pages within the site (i.e. they don't have to use the leftside tree navigation). What I want is that the navigation js recognizes that a page loads without any node has been clicked, and automagically expands the nav tree and highlights the node for that page.
No AJAX, no XML, no php or asp, just plain HTML + JS is a requirement from our customers.
Is that possible with any of your products...?
A: Yes it is possible with Deluxe Tree.

http://deluxe-tree.com/highlight-selected-menu-item-sample.htmlQ: I place all of my files in folders. If I want the Deluxe menu to work I have to have the Deluxe menu saved in each folder for it to work with the files inside those folders.
A: There is no need to copy al files for the menu in each folder.
To install the menu you can use such paths:
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "../menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: I am in the process of evaluating the deluxe-menu product V3.2.7.16 and have created a simple HTML using the deluxe-menu Vista Style #6. This works great and displays with the animation in IE and also using FireFox V2 with IE tabs.. However, in basic FireFox and Safari, the javascript menus display but without the swirling animation. Pls advise !!
A: Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer5.5+ only.

Q: Using the new version with unmodified menus results in a new frame menu indentation (the left border of the first javascript folding menu entries submenu in a frame menu setup is not aligned with its main menu entry (both in IE 6 and FF 1.5 / Linux)) - possibly we might need to arrange something?
A: I suppose that this is space to document borders. We've set this space, so that yoursubmenus will not look like the part of browser window. If you wantyou can delete that space.
Open dmenu.js file in any text editor and find the following code:
space=15;
Change 15 to 0.
space=0;
Try that.
