Q: Could it be possible to explain to me how to create cross-frame horizontal navigation bar..

A: To initialize the cross frame menu call dm_initFrame()
function instead of standard dm_init() function within data.js file:

dm_initFrame(framesetID, mainFrameInd, subFrameInd, orientation);

framesetID - id attribute of the frameset;
mainFrameInd - index of the main frame (where the top-menu is placed), >=0;
subFrameInd - index of the subframe (where the submenus will be shown), >=0;
orientation - frame orientaion: 0 - top-to-bottom, 1 - left-to-right; 2 - bottom-to-top; 3 - right-to-left.

So you should create your menu in Deluxe Tuner, save it.
Create html file with your frame set.
Set ID for the first frameset:
<FRAMESET id=frmSet rows=220,*>
<FRAME id=frame1 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/cross-frame-horizontal-1.htm"> //menu frame
<FRAME id=frame2 name=frame2 src="Deluxe Menu Samples_files/testlink.htm"> //content frame
</FRAMESET>

Then you should open your data file in any text editor and changedm_init();
for example to dm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0);

Q: My Deluxe Menu works super.

Anyway, I would like to make it more comfortable for my users.

So, I would like to know if it possible to create a "Multicolumn Menu"

(http://deluxe-menu.com/multicolumn-menu-sample.html)

and separate define which submenu should be multicolumn and wich one looks "normal".

In your example all menu options which have submenus become multicolumn-look.

Is it maybe also possible to create such Multicolumn-look?

Group_01       Group_02       Group_03
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
Group_04       Group_05       Group_06
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx
    - xxx             - xxx             - xxx


A: Yes, you can create such menu.
You can create "normal" items using separator.
     ["|-","testlink.htm"],

Please, see the attached example.


Q: I am a web developer and evaluating your product using the Trial Version. I created navigation bar for our website.

It is displaying fine (centered) when using Internet Explorer 7.0. When I access the same website using FireFox Browser, the java drop down menu code aligns on the left.

A: It is not correct to write
align=middle

you should write
align=center

You should set the following menu parameters:

  var absolutePos=0;
  var posX="0px";
  var posY="0px";



Q: I would like to know how to define separator on itemstyle or how to show separator on menu items.

Thanking you in advance.


A: You should set a separator in the menuItems, for example:

  var menuItems = [
["Home","index.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
["-"],
["About Us","about.cfm", , , , , , , , ],
];

Please, see the following parameters:

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems
  var separatorWidth="100%";
  var separatorHeight="3px";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="images/public/separator.gif"; //for the top items
  var separatorVWidth="100%";
  var separatorVHeight="2px";
  var separatorPadding="";
