Q: I am struggling with my menu on my site the submenu is under the main text area. How do I make the submenu come to the front.
A: Check your z-index for <DIV id=navigation>.
Try to write it, for example, so:
<DIV id=navigationstyle="Z-INDEX: 10; LEFT: 0px; WIDTH: 170px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 5px; HEIGHT: 600px">
Try that.
Q: I am using the tree menu script in a frameset, and I would like for the selected menu branch to stay highlighted after the user moves the mouse to another window(where the menu brings up a new page),just so the user knows where he/she is.
Is that possible?
A: But if you open links in the another frame (window) the initial frame with your menu isnot reloaded, so the clicked item will be highlighted.
You should set the following parameters:
var ttoggleMode=1;
var tpressedFontColor="#AAAAAA";
You can also set the following parameter to save menu state:
var tsaveState=1;
var tsavePrefix="menu1";
If you install the menu without frames. On your pages you should call the following function/functions to expand/highlight items, for example:
<script>
dtreet_ext_expandItem (dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 0), 1);
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (0, dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 1));
</script>

Cause this is a problem as the main menu bar does not have a background color ( I want the background image of the page to shine through).
A: Yes, you can do it. Please open in any text editor the following file:
"C:\Program Files\Deluxe Menu\deluxe-tuner\data\deluxe-menu\preview.html"
You should set bgcolor parameter, for example:
bgcolor=#000000
Q: We need Asian fonts to be displayed on the menu. Is there any way that we can really make it happen?
The constraint is we have to display the drop down in Cross Frame and Cross Domain environment.
Your inputs will be really appreciated.
A: You can use any font in your menu.
You should install the font on your computer.
You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.
The only issue is that submenus can be shown in incorrect positionwhen you're using dir=rtl for your page.
var dmRTL = 0;
Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>.Use also var smViewType = 2;for right-to-left languages.
