Q: I've begun experimenting with the dhtml rollover menu program and like what I see.
Question, when I have a tree menu on the left and the user clicks a node, I want the resulting HTML page to appear next to the dhtml rollover menu, on the right hand side. How do I reposition the HTML page so it doesn't take up the whole page and cover the menu?
A: You can use frames and open link pages into the content frame, or use Iframe.
Please, set the name for your iframe, for example:
<iframe name ='myFrame' ...
<frame name ='myFrame' ...
And then you must set the following dhtml rollover menu parameter in the data file withyour menu:
var titemTarget="myFrame";
Q: Also, I was wondering about adding some css (style="cursor:pointer") so when someone is over the javascript pop menu it will turn into a hand and the user will know it is clickable.
A: Set the following javascript pop menu parameter:
var itemCursor="pointer";
Q: Go to the "products", then to "Furnaces" or "Humidifiers". Seethe sub menu js items ending with "0"? See how they seem to be cut off on the very far right edge?
A: This is a feature of Firefox 3.0.3.
You'll have such effect if you'll use Trebuchet MS font andtransparency for submenus.
Try to use another font, or set
var transparency="100";
Q: How would I use the submenu feature to display itself only if a person is logged in. such as if a person logged in then the member area would expand, else it would always stay closed with only the login username section showing?
A: Unfortunately it is not possible. You can only add items depending onthe logged user.
You should use API functions:

For example, you can use:
function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)
function dtreet_ext_deleteItem (menuInd, itemID)
function dtreet_ext_showItem (itemID, visibility)
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
