Q: I am evaluating your product and would like to display my top menu without a border, but have the dropdown (child menus) all have a border and shadow.
If I change the menuBorderWidth to anything but 0, I get a menu on both the top menus and dropdowns. I need a topBorderWidth and a childBorderWidth.
Is there any way to accomplish this?
A: Yes, you can do it.
Please, set:
var menuBorderWidth=0;
To set border for submenus you should use Individual Submenu styles, for example:
var menuStyles = [
     ["menuBorderWidth=1","menuBorderColor=#9A9CA7"], //style 0
];
var menuItems = [
     ["Home","testlink.html", , , , , , , , ],
     ["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , , , , ],
         ["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", , , , "0", , ], //style 0
     ["Samples","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , , , , ],
         ["|Sample 1","testlink.html", "default.files/icon6.gif", "default.files/icon6o.gif", , , , "0", , ], //style 0
         ["|Sample 2 is Disabled","testlink.html", "default.files/icon6.gif", "default.files/icon6o.gif", , "_", , "-1", , ],
...
You should assign style for the first item in the submenu.
Q: It appears that this product only supports IE (on the PC and Mac). It does not support Safari or Netscape on any platform. Is that correct?
I ask because I like the product and would like to purchase the developer\'s license but our users represent a wide range of platforms and browsers.
A: DHTML products support a major part of modern browsers:
IE 5+
Opera 5+
Mozilla/Firefox
NS 6+
Also they support MAC browsers: Safari, IE, Firefox.
But DHTML Menu has some problems on this browsers with a submenuspositioning in some cases.
If you can't see Tree Menu in Firefox you should set these parameters:
Try to specify units in "px".
var tmenuWidth = "280px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.
You should set this parameter:
var tmenuHeight = "auto";
Q: Javascript menu frame Borders are present Firefox but missing in IE7, IE8, Google Chrome, Safari.
Firefox shows the borders ok.
A: You've set the following parameters in this menu:
var menuBorderColor="#FF9191 #FF7837 #E10000 #952D00 ";
var menuBorderWidth=3;
var menuBorderStyle="";
You should specify style for your border, for example:
var menuBorderStyle="solid";
See the attached example. I cannot notice such issue on Safari forWin. Write what version you're using.

["|Index <select style='width:120px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'><option>Section 1<option>Section 2<option>Section 3</select>", "", "", "", "", "","", "0"],
["|Search <input type=text style='width:80px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'> <input type=button value='Go'style='width:30px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],

["|<INPUT TYPE=checkbox CHECKED ID=chk1 onclick='choosebox1()'>Uncheck this check box for some free advice","","","",],

You should also add your own code, so your checkbox will workcorrectly.
