Q: The first is that for some reason my item separator image will not show. I have tried everything.. and no matter what I do the image will not show. I designed a graphic that is 2 pixels high and is the width of the total menu. The first problem is that the graphic wont show at all.. and I do not know why. Secondly, I am now thinking that I would like to use the separator graphic on all levels of the menu.. but this creates a another issue.. as the width of the submenus varies based on the length of the text displayed. How then can I have a separator image work in the submenus?
A: Try to write you Item Styles so:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid","itemBorderColor=#D7F5FE,#FFFFFF",
"fontColor=#A0A0A0,#A0A0A0","fontDecoration=none,none"],
["itemBackColor=#6DD0FE,#00ACFC","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",
"itemBorderColor=#6DD0FE,#FFFFFF"],
];
See the normal item border color.
You didn't paste separator into your menuItems.

Q: I was wondering how do I add more then five items on the top javascript toggle menu rather then using a sub menu.
A: Actually you can add as many top items as you want.
Use Deluxe Tuner to add more items or add them in your data filemanually, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Item 1","whatsnew.htm", "Buttons/whatsnewup.jpg", "Buttons/whatsnewover.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 2","test.htm", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 3","index.htm", "Buttons/homeup.jpg", "Buttons/homeover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 4","about.htm", "Buttons/aboutup.jpg", "Buttons/aboutover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 5","commserv.htm", "buttons/commservup.jpg", "buttons/commservover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 6","conference.htm", "buttons/conferenceup.jpg", "buttons/conferenceover.jpg", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 7","lodges.htm", "buttons/districtsup.jpg", "", "", "_parent", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: My name is Wayne Dekmar, I am a registered user. I have a question when using your javascript browser menu with Frames. In the Item Parameter box, Link, I would select the page that I want open. Target, would I select custom then add below : Target='main'. Is this correct? Can you give me an example of how to do this.
A: You can set target parameter for all items:
var itemTarget="main";
Where main - is the name of the frame where you want to open the link.
or for each item individually:
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I want to make a Treemenu with AJAX.
If I look in the dhtml menu tool preview all is good.
But if I put it in a html, it does not function anymore.
I'm using Version 3.2.6.12 (you sent me a while ago)
A: There is a bug in the current version of Deluxe Tuner. It doesn't saveengine file for AJAX menu - dtree_ajax.js.
Please, copy it manually now. We'll correct this bug in the nextversion.
You should also add tWorkPath parameter in your html page.
