Q: The xml drop down menu gets at the back of the flash..Can you tell us the problem?

A: You can try to add the following parameters for flash objects:

<PARAM NAME=wmode VALUE=opaque> and WMODE="opaque" for <EMBED>

It allows to overlap a flash movie by other layers.

For example:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="40">

Q: Can data be loaded dynamically in the free drop down menu? For example, can you load the child of a node once the node is clicked on.

A: You can use AJAX like technology.

http://deluxe-menu.com/ajax-technology-menu-sample.html

You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>


<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: We recently bought your product.

We are developing in ASP.NET (VB) and we have a problem making you deluxe menu dynamic to suit our needs. We are using the Deluxe Menu.

The problem is each time a page with dhtml nav loads, we want to be able to generate the menuItems variable to reflect the options the individual user has, so it can't be hard coded into data.js it MUST be provided by an aspx file and attached somehow. I can't work out how to attach the variable (even a static one) as a separate file, so if you can do it with a static one, we can extend it to a dynamic one later.

For example the JS in the data.js file we want the MenuItem dimension you be loaded in a seperate file, some kind of include.

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["About","about.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Contact","contact.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Help","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|HowTo Register","RegHelp.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|FAQ","FAQ.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Dos 'n' Don'ts","DoDont.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Workshop","workshop.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Gold Run","", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About Goldrun","goldrunAbout.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Veiw Sites","GoldDistribSites.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["My Run","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|About","aboutmyrun.aspx", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Hope this makes sense.

A: You can move
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

dhtml nav code from your data file to your page (template) directly:

<script>
  var menuItems = [
...
];
dm_init();

</script>

Q: I want to buy your product today, but have a few questions:

How do I change the font style for java menu templates to 9pt Verdana bold, but leave the sub-menus 9pt Verdana normal? I understand there’s a "fontStyle" variable, but is there an "itemfontStyle"? How do I make the left hand padding greater for the menu? I’m using the XP Style 1 and the far left top menu item is running up against my left hand border. I want to add about 10px of spacing to the left of the menu. How do I make the options in a menu have equal spacing? For instance, if there are 5 items in the menu, how can each have 100% / 5?

A: You can use Individual Item styles to set specific parameters for eachitem or submenu.

1.
  var fontStyle=["normal 9pt Verdana","normal 9pt Verdana"]; //for subitems
//style for the top items
  var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
];

2., 4. You should specify itemPadding parameter in "px". You shouldadd "px" in your style for subitems:
  var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"],
];

Notice also that you can set multiple value for itemPadding parameter,for example:

itemPadding=4px 10px 4px 10px
top right bottom left
4. You should set the exact width for the java menu templates:
  var menuWidth="500px";
and set width for the top items using Individual styles:
["itemWidth=100px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],

Unfortunately it is not possible to specify item's width in '%' inIndividual styles. The following width parameters won't work.

  var menuWidth="100%";
["itemWidth=20%","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
