Q: Couple last questions. I have 25 icons (images) on one page. Each image needs it's own popup menu. Obviously I now have the first one working. How and where do I define IDs number 2-24 ? Does each icon need it's own "source_" file?
Also, where is it defined that the popup menu is ID 1 ?
A: > Also, where is it defined that the popup menu is ID 1 ?
Each menu has ID. The ID's number starts with 0.
So, when you have several data files on your page you have such ID's:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="menu-top.js"></script> // ID - 0
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop.js"></script> // ID - 1
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop1.js"></script> // ID - 2
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop2.js"></script> // ID - 3
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="source_pop3.js"></script> // ID - 4
and so on.

If you want to have different Popup menus (there color, item, text,font and so on) you should create 25 different .js files with yourparameters. And call them from your page, for example:
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop1.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop2.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
...
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop24.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
If you have different item text only you can use one
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
file. But you should delete the following code:
var menuItems = [
["Next","testlink.htm"],
["Prev","testlink.htm"],
["Close","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
and move it to the html page:
<body>
...
<SCRIPT language=JavaScript1.2 src="source_pop.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //first popup menu ID - 1
var menuItems = [
["Next","testlink.htm"],
["Prev","testlink.htm"],
["Close","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //second popup menu ID - 2
var menuItems = [
["Text","testlink.htm"],
["Text1","testlink.htm"],
["Text2","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<script type="text/javascript"> //third popup menu ID - 3
var menuItems = [
["New_Text","testlink.htm"],
["New_Text1","testlink.htm"],
["New_Text2","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
...
<script type="text/javascript"> //twenty fourth popup menu ID - 3
var menuItems = [
["New","testlink.htm"],
["New","testlink.htm"],
["New","testlink.htm"],
];
dm_init();
</SCRIPT>
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(1, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(2, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(3, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
...
<img src="testimage.gif" width=200 onClick="return dm_popup(24, 1000, event);" style="cursor: hand;">
...
</body>
Q: We just downloaded the trial versions to evaluate and I noticed something a little odd. When I build a menu that will not have icons next to the links, I don't see a way the I can move the test further tothe left inside the menu.
Notice how the links within the menu box are almost centered? Is there anyway to move those items further to the left?
A: Try to set the following parameter.
var tlevelDX=0;
You cannot move it closer to the left side.
Q: Your drop down menu builder makes about every kind of menu except the one that is hot right now...the slider menu.
A: But we have the Tree Menu, http://deluxe-tree.com
It is the slide menu.

Q: Normally, when the list of items under a menu is longer (tall) than the browser, the menu will follow (auto scroll) with your cursor.
When I use cross frames, and the list is longer (tall) than the frame area, it will not auto scroll.
Am I missing a setting somewhere?
A: Unfortunately, it is really so.
You can't use "auto scroll" in cross frame mode. You should to scroll your page.
