Q: I'm trying to disable a javascript mouse over menu item using the MS Office style 2 template and having no luck. Can you please provide me a sample of the MS Office style 2 template that will disable an item on the menu by graying it out?
A: To disable menu item you should set "_" target for it.
If you want that your disabled items have a grey color (in css-basedmenu) you should create additional style for it and assign this stylefor the disabled items:
["CSSText=toptext_dis,toptext_dis"],
.toptext_dis
{
font: normal 11px Tahoma, Arial;
color: #AAAAAA;
padding: 3px;
}

Q: Is there a way to have the menu stay expanded in the same exact state when
I click on a menu item of the javascript tree view and go to a new page?
A: There is no need to write additional code on a server side to remember what items were expanded/collapsed.
DHTML Tree Menu can save items state automatically.
Please, see the example of the menu that works with cookies:
http://dhtml-menu.com/tree-examples/tree-menuxp-save-state.html
Set the following parameter:
var tsaveState = 1;
and the menu remembers its structure for each user who visit your page.
Try to expand/collapse items. Then reload the page and you'll see results.
Q: Is it possible to change the mouseover font style to bold within the deluxe menu?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu can't change font weight.
If you want to do that you can paste your own <div> withinitem's text field and change a font yourselves.
For example:
***
function changeFont(obj, over)
{
obj.style.fontWeight = over ? 'bold' : 'normal';
}
var menuItems = [
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>item text</div>", link, ...]
];
***
