Q: I'm am try to use your Deluxe drop down menu generator and can not get it to work..
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New"and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" onthe main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html
You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html
2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML.
So, you'll have folder with all engine files and images("Deluxe-menu.files/" folder by default), Deluxe-menu.html file anddata-Deluxe-menu.js file with all menu parameters.
Open Deluxe-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows ofcode into your page (for example index.html page of your website).
Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).
<head>
...
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">drop down menu generator by deluxe-menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var WorkPath="Deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
</head>
<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="Deluxe-menu.files/data-Deluxe-menu.js"></script></td></tr> //data-Deluxe-menu.js - data file
created in
Deluxe Tuner.
</table>
...
</body>
You should also copy "Deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
and data-Deluxe-menu.js file into the same folder with your index.html page.
Try that.Q: Is there any luck with getting your popup menusto work with the dynamic drive script..?
A: Unfortunately we don't work with dynamic drive script.
But I suppose that you can use it with Deluxe Menu without any problems.
But in that case you should move menuItems and dm_init(); function from your data file tothe html page directly.
For example delete the following code from your data file
var menuItems = [
["Aston Martin Page","javascript:ajaxpage('ajaxfiles/external3.htm', 'rightcolumn');\"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
and paste it in SCRIPT tags on your html page in the place where you want to have a menu:
...
<div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var menuItems = [
["Aston Martin Page","javascript:ajaxpage('ajaxfiles/external3.htm', 'rightcolumn');\"", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
</script>
</div>
Q: Is there a way with your script drop down menu to make the menus appear to be expanded when on a certain page?
A: No, unfortunately there is no way to expand Deluxe Menu.
You can try to use Deluxe Tree, http://deluxe-tree.com in that case.
You can expand specific items in Deluxe Tree using
dtreet_ext_expandItem ()
function.

http://deluxe-tree.com/functions-info.htmlQ: After creating and using a menu, is it possible to insert/change the position of a menu item?
For instance, I am using years in a submenu and the current year always needs to be at the top.
Is this possible with drag and drop or by some other means in the Tuner v2?
A: Yes you can do it.
You can find all info in our Help.
