Q: My site requires me to regularly update the drop down menu by inserting a new item at the top of the list.
A: Add items using the following function:
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)
Adds the new item to a submenu.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
iParams = [array] - the array of item parameters.
This parameter has the same structure as an item in menuItems array.
You can assign parameters of another existent item of the menu
(for example, when you want to create a duplicate of the existent item) or create new ones.
Structure of iParams:
[item_text, link, icon_normal, icon_over, tip, target, individual_style_index, jsFilename]
Pos - the position in the menu where you want to add new item.

http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.htmlQ: I have a couple of questions related to the deluxe-menu software. Here they are:
I have been working with on a site and I am kind stack using the program. I want to use the tree option but not all java script drop menu items need to have subcategories. For example:
Category 1
Sub-menu 1-1
Sub-menu 1-2
Sub-menu 1-3
Category 2
Sub-menu 2-1
Sub-menu 2-2
Sub-menu 2-3
Category 3
Category 4 When someone click on the "Category 1" or "Category 2", I want them to see the sub-menus. However, when some click on "Category 3" or "Category 4", I would like to have it open the appropriate page. How do I do this? This will make a lot easier because not all java script drop menu items need to have sub-menus… I hope that makes sense and you can help me on getting this done.
Thanks in advance and looking forward to your answers,
A: You cannot use links for the top java script drop menu items in XP Style only.
var tXPStyle=1;
but you can write:
["<a href='http://deluxe-menu.com'>Item 45</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I am looking to integrate your menu system into a CMS (Content Management System) such as Joomla. I was curious if you have any supporting documentation as to any steps that could make this any easier; or if its anything you have looked at previously. I know some menu systems actually have export modules in which it will export their system to a CMS compatible template; does this menu software have any of the functionality; or modules (even 3rd party modules) that perform similar function?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Joomla extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application
(included into the trial package): http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-tuner-info.html
Please, try the trial version.
Q: I have tested your Deluxe Menu Builder and found it easy to work with.
One problem I have is that java menu freeware doesn’t support Swedish letters. When I preview the menu in a browser instead of those specific Swedish letters there are squares.
Could you please inform what I can do? Are there some setting I can change to use Swedish letters?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soonest possible.
A: You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.
Unfortunately, you can't use Swedish letters in Deluxe Tuner application.You should manually correct your data file with the menu parameters.
