Q: We're working on new website and including your html menu systems.
Here's what we're trying to do and it keeps giving us an error (using MS Frontpage for development):
1) We have created a single leftnav menu that will appear on all of the pages of our website.
2) We've created an html page called leftnav.htm that is only this menu. It works just fine when we preview within Frontpage. The leftnav.htm and all the menu .js files are in a unique folder within the site.
3) We then have a template page that is the base template for many of the pages on our website. There is a layout table in this template into which we do an Includepage to bring in the leftnav.htm. When we try to preview this page with the menu included, we get a script error that says "Object expected" on line #155 (the .js file only has 154 lines of code).
We're stuck. Is there a problem with how we're trying to implement the html menu systems?
A: It is possible that you'll have an error in the Frontpage's preview.
Try to open your page in browser. If you'll have the same error,please send send us a copy of your html pages (including .js files) and we will check it.
Q: I'd like to purchase your deluxe menu, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to align the javascript sub menu to the top of the primary menu in Firefox. It aligns correctly in IE but in Firefox it is dropping by 20 pixels or so below where I want it.
A: This is space to document borders. We've set this space, so that yourjavascript sub menu will not look like the part of browser window. If you wantyou can delete that space.
Open dmenu.js file in any text editor and find the following code:
space=15;
Change 15 to 0.
space=0;
Q: I can't find an instance of your java pop menu that can lay over top of a flash object without making the flash object disappear like your demo.
Does yours or doesn't it do the same thing and if so, where is there an example?
A: Deluxe Menu overlaps flash in all browsers.
You can find fix for Firefox here:

Q: I am using deluxe menus and have a problem with images not downloading when the page loads. Is there a way to instruct the menus to preload the images instead of waiting until a person mouse overs the basic drop down menu for the first time?
I am using images that are called via stylesheet.
A: Please try to add the following basic drop down menu parameter:
var dm_writeAll = 1;
