Use Individual Item Styles.
Create Individual Item style and assign it to your submenu items usingDeluxe Tuner.
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#800000,#FF8080"], //style0
];
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif","deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style0

Q: I place all of my files in folders. If I want the Deluxe menu to work I have to have the Deluxe menu saved in each folder for it to work with the files inside those folders.
A: There is no need to copy al files for the menu in each folder.
To install the menu you can use such paths:
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "../menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: I developed a little test dhtml menu slide tree. For the items "Aktivitaeten Auswahl" and "Kontakt Auswahl" I have no subitems. The item line shows a little button with double arrows.
I would like to get rid of these buttons, because there are no subitems.
How can I do that?
A: You should create Individual XP Style and apply it for these items.
var tXPStyles = [
["tXPTitleBackColor=#D9DAE2","tXPTitleBackImg=data-quelle.files/xptitle2_s.gif", "tXPExpandBtn=data-quelle.files/right.gif,data-quelle.files/right.gif,data-quelle.files/right.gif,data-quelle.files/right.gif"],
];
Q: How do I open a PDF document in a new window? Is this in the Item Parameters window?
A: You can specify target parameter for each item
["|Open file","file.pdf", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", ],
If you want to use context menu you can try to write your menuItems in the following way:
["|<a href='file.pdf' target='_blank'>Open file</a>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
But you should create correct style for <a> tag.
