Q: What i am doing is a horizontal menu with submenus opening down vertically. The main menu and sub menu has a background image. These are rather large for a menu and when the sub menu expands i want it to stay below the main menu and not go upwards to cover the main menu when the browser window is too small.
A: Yes, they will stay forcibly below the main menu.
You can use Smart Scrollable Feature. In that case sub menus won't cover
the main menu items. You can see an example here
http://deluxe-menu.com/scrollable-submenus-sample.html
You may specify the exact height for submenus, for example:
var smHeight="500px";
Use the following parameters to set the direction for submenus:
var subMenuAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="top";

We want several popups to appear. We have tried to automagically assigna random name, but without success, the show() command kills the commands and just redirects.
A: You can do it in two ways:
1) Call different data files with DIFFERENT winID:"window1"!
2) Call only one data file and use deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open your windows:
<a href="javascript:;" onclick="deluxePopupWindow.open('window1', 'Content1 Content1', 'Window1','width=220,height=100,resizable,scrollbars=no,middle,right,fade-effect','windowsvista_graphite')">

Q: Also I have a problem getting the separator to show in my javascript right click menu. I have individual settings for the main menu items. I then tried to place an after item image, and they will show, though then the mouseover image does not work.
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical javascript right click menu)
var separatorWidth="100%";
var separatorHeight="3px";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu)
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="2px";
var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems (you can do it in DeluxeTuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:
var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];
Q: Can you answer a few questions?
1 Can I use Hebrew in the menus easily?
2 Can I create menus that go right to left instead of left to right for Hebrew?
A: 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.
