Q: I have created a CSS menu that appears in the <noscript> section, but am having a problem getting it to behave the same as the java menu. I want to show all the items as asingle line at each level, aligned to the left of the frame. I cannot find a way ofsetting left align in the style sheet or in the deluxe tuner for the css dhtml menu.
A: We've added align parameters in the new version 3.6:
var subMenuAlign="pleft";
You should set this parameter and specify width for submenu. You can use different smwidthfor each submenu using Individual Submenu styles.
Q: I have tried changing every menu variable I can see to make the actual iconbackground a different color than the menu items background with no success.Is this possible?
I would like the icon background to change with the alternating colors byrow .. and I know how to do this. but when I do it .. all the menus andsubmenus also change and I would like their background to stay white.
A: Yes, it's possible.
You should use an individual style for icon item, please see

Q: I am having some difficulty dynamically adding items to a dhtml sliding menus.
A: See dtreet_ext_insertItem () function has the following parameters:
function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)
Creates a new item and inserts it into a specified position.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
parentItemID - ID property of an item.<, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a new item within the menu, >= 0.
itemParams - item parameters.
Notice that parentItemID is the Id property of the parent item
(notindex). If you want to add top items you should set parentItemID=0.
itemInd - you should use this parameter if you want to add item in the
specific place, for example set itemInd=5 if you want to add item
before the existing item with itemInd=5.
If you set itemInd=null the new item will be added at the end of this submenu and its index will be added automatically.
Q: I wonder if you can help me. I've uploaded all my files, including the menus to the client site.
All the menus were working fine, where each link was targeted to the frame "mainFrame" in the middle of the page. This morning, all the css javascript menu link targets don't work anymore. That is, the targeting info has not changed but the linked pages are opening up as a _parent page -- that is, replacing the entire page.
A: You should use absolute paths.
See the url browser tried to open:
http://domain.com/a_bp/bpdoc/3sell/32_sales_order_management/321_sales_order/
7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
instead of:
http://domain.com/7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameter allows to make links paths absolute.
For example:
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
Please, try to use this parameter.
