Q: I would eventually like to be able to distribute the javascript navigation menu with some of my templates, is this permitted with the Developer license?
A: With the Developer license you can use the menu on an unlimited numberof Internet or Intranet sites and on the local machines.
This version of the script doesn't check keys and it isn't bound to a domain name,so it can be used with an application that doesn't have a fixed domain name.

var fontStyle=["bold 10px Tahoma","bold 10px Tahoma"];

Q: I’m very interested in your script of deluxe-menu.
I tryed your script out and have some questions now:
How do I highlight main menu items when I selected a main category?
How do I highlight submenu items when I selected a sub category?
How can I have a submenu unfoldet when I selected the matching main category?
I would be pleased to have answers to my questions as soon as possible.
Thank you for support!
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
