Q: I replaced the code you suggested and I downloaded the current version of Deluxe-Tuner. I also removed the Javascript roll-overs I had elsewhere on the page and created the text.
I still get 'Error on page' when I hover over the first java scrolling menu item.
Please help! I need to buid this site out by Monday.
A: Now you have several errors in your data file:
var menuBackColor="f9f9ec";
You should write:
var menuBackColor="#f9f9ec";
The following parameters cannot be empty:
var menuBorderWidth="0";
var itemBorderWidth="0";
It is not correct to write the java scrolling menu parameter in the following way:
var itemBorderStyle=["1px","1px"];
You should write:
var itemBorderStyle=["none","none"];
If you want to add borders in the subitems you should write:
var itemBorderWidth="1";
var itemBorderColor=["#c59d1f","#c59d1f"];
var itemBorderStyle=["solid","solid"];
And to remove border from the top items you should create Individualstyle and assign it to the top items:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderWidth=0","itemBorderStyle=none,none"],
];
["","", "/images/nav_OFF_01.gif", "/images/nav_ON_01.gif", "", "","0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["","", "/images/nav_OFF_02.gif", "/images/nav_ON_02.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0

Q: How can I use Danish characters in my dhtml menu bars?
A: You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.
In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode. So, you
should set UTF-8 encode on your page too
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"charset="UTF-8">
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off
"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manually
change your letters in any text editor.
Q: Do you by chance have an example of the java popup menu working with XML?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so,you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
