Q: How can I add a separator to the expanding navigation bar using the dynamic functions?
It seems as though the only way to get a separator into the menu is by defining itbefore hand,
but the website I'm building will require me to reload themenus dinamically,
and I'm losing the ability to put separators on it.
A: You should add items using the following function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
or
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)

Set the following parameter:
var dm_writeAll=1;
So, you should write:
dm_ext_addItem(0, 4, ["|-", "", "", "", "", "", "", ])
Q: In javascriptcoding I have id of the submenu. How can retrieve id of the parent menu item in the drop-down menus?
A: You can try to use the following function
function dm_ext_getSubmenuParams (menuInd, submenuInd)
Returns submenu parameters in the array:
[submenu_id, items_count, parent_item_id, submenu_level, is_horizontal]
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
Using this function you can retrieve the parent_item_id.

Q: I'm still having the issue with the sub-menus not being in the proper place, however I was able to fix the issue with menu now showing up in IE at all, it turns out I forgot a tag. So do you know why the sub-menu alignment changes depending on the browser window size? Either of the links below should give an example.
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "position" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style(style="position:absolute"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
You should add style="position:absolute;"
to the
<DIV id=navholder>
So, you'll have:
<DIV id=navholder style="position:absolute;">
Q: I created a tree menu based on your template Vista Style 7.
I would like to know if there are some possibilities to set the x coordinate of the submenus. I would like to have a tree menu with submenus which are not moving to the right when expanding the main menu but staying under it.
A: You can only try to use the following parameter to change submenuposition:
var tlevelDX=0;
