Q: Could you please advise how to stop drop down menu horizontal going under a swf in Firefox.

A: To overlap your flash file you should add opaque parametersto your flash, for example:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"width="566" height="250" title="Intro">
<param name="movie" value="/includes/banner_final3d.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque">
<param name="quality" value="high" />

Q: When my page loads up, there is a flash for about a second of all the text that is used in the java menus. This looks really bad to visitors like I am using hidden text on the page. Is there a way to prevent this flash of text?

A: I suppose that you see search engine friendly code.

<!-- Code for Deluxe Menu Items. Generated by Deluxe Tuner -->
<div id="dmlinks" style="font:undefined;color:#000000;text-decoration:none">
<a id="dmI0" href="testlink.html">Home</a>
<a id="dmI2" href="testlink.html">Features</a>
...
</div>
<!-- End of Code for Deluxe Menu Items -->

You won't see this text in most cases. We use it on our websites too.

But you can delete this code if you want.



Q: I recently purchased Deluxe Menu and I am getting the attached error message every time my cursor passes over the toolbar at thetop of the main program window. Is there a fix?


A: I suppose that you're using Windows 2000.
We have some problems with Tuner on this OS.

Unfortunately we didn't fix the issue with Windows 2000 yet.

Try to delete all content from toolbar.html file.

Q: And another question about displaying the links code in html.

How to create a drop down menu links to be displayed in the html code for search engines to catch them, is that possible?

A: You can use search engine friendly code and install it on yourpage before you call your data file.
You'll see text links in that case.

To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:

<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>

To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.

Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3)
