Q: Can you please tell me what is wrong with the second level of java file menu not lining up at the top of the screen? Admin --> Organization Information --> Providers is dropped down too far. (testimage.bmp attached) (css attached) (javascript attached) Also the desktop menu is not flushed all the way to the left, can you tell me why that is?
A: 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.
Q: Just wondering if you could help.I wish to put a script java menu on every page of my site - through all the folders etc.
How do I set it so that they all 'feed' from the same dmenu.js file?
How do I set the file path to that file from all pages of my website?
A: 1) How do I set it so that they all 'feed' from the same dmenu.js file?
You should use absolute path here:
1. Paste the following code into a tag of your page:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "http://site.com/menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://site.com/menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2009, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
2. Paste the following code where you want to have the menu:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://site.com/menudir/data.js"></script>
2) How do I set the file path to that file from all pages of my website?
If you don't want to create your menu on each page, you can try to useframes, the menu has a cross-frame mode.
Also you can use aserver-side script (php, asp, vb, etc.) to generate html pages fromtemplates on your server.
Q: I have started with the deluxe - looks a little more confusing, but I will persist.
Just to confirm that this is right for me.
1) Will deluxe load quickly?.
2) Will it work with most browsers? Or will user need to download some sort of java file?
3) Can I use it with dreamweaver?
A: 1) Deluxe Menu generally loads faster than other page elements.
It is possible that the speed of showing the menu can be lower if the menu is very large. But it doesn't take so much time.
2) Deluxe Menu works fine in most of browsers on Windows OS, MAC OS, Linux/Unix OS.
More info you can find here:

You don't have to install additional software.
Your customer should change security settings in IE to allow Javascript on pages he loads.
When your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript onpages you load you can't see a dynamic page content.
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
3) Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in Dreamweaver/Frontpage
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.

Q: I am evaluating your Deluxe Menu. I see there are many different template designs. Is it possible to create a custom image to be used as the base image for the main javascript pull down menu? If, so how is it done? Or is it mandatory to use the templates available? I would like to have a larger image for the main javascript pull down menu. Most templates have very small and thin images.
A: No, it is not mandatory to use templates.
You can use your own images. Try to use the following javascript pull down menu parameters:
var menuBackImage="";
var menuBackRepeat="repeat";
var itemBackImage=["",""];
And Individual Item Style and Individual Submenu Styles.
