Q: Can you explain website drop down menu creation and implement in html files?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New" and add items and subitems
using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on the 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
http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html
You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html
2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML.
So, you'll have folder with all engine files and images
("deluxe-menu.files/" folder by default), deluxe-menu.html file and
data-deluxe-menu.js file with all menu parameters.
Open deluxe-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows of
code into your page (for example index.html page of your website).
Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).
<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
</head>
<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data-deluxe-menu.js"></script></td></tr> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file createdin Deluxe Tuner.
</table>
...
</body>
You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
and data-deluxe-menu.js file into the same folder with your index.html page.
Try that.

Q: How can I use Danish characters in my menu using javascript? In normal html you would use something like this:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
What should I do in Deluxe Menu?
A: You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode. So, youshould set UTF-8 encode on your page too
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"charset="UTF-8">
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manuallychange your letters in any text editor.
You can also replace your letters with special sets, for example
É - Capital E, acute accent
var menuItems = [
["É....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I have set up the dhtml menu javascript at this site. I have chosen to use the transitional filter from IE6. The main menus and sub menus work fine in IE but in Firefox the sub menus do not appear at all. Is their a fix for this. I realize that firefox does not support IE transitions but Ithought the sub menus would appear when the main item is clicked on. that hs not happened. Go to above URL and vie in both IE and Firefox and you will see what I mean.
A: You couldn't see submenus in FF because you had
var transparency="";
You should set your parameters in the following way:
var transparency="100";
var itemBackColor=["#072450",""];
Q: Many thanks for your response.
What I meant to say was that the Deluxe tabs onmouseover maker did not include the vertical tabs as part of its repertoire and as a result, I was not able to produce it and integrate it into my page. I am not confident that I can edit the HTML adequately to make it work on my site if the Deluxe Maker did nod not generate it. I will look at this again and see if I reinstall the deluxe tuner whether it will generate the data for the vertical tabs.
Many Thanks for your assistance.
A: Set '$' symbol in the beginning of items text to start new row:
var bmenuItems = [
["Item 39","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["$Item 40","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["$Item 41","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["$Item 42","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
You can open the data file for this sample in Deluxe Tuner and changeit.
