Q: I use your licensed deluxe menu and I got a customer specific issue:
Is it possible to set no background color for the menus first level and a background color for all submenus?
I couldn't find a parameter to set different variables for main level and sublevels...
Thank you for your feedback
A: You should use Individual Styles for your subitems.
var menuBackColor="";
var itemBackColor=["",""];
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#81BEC9,#CCE6EA"], //style0
];

Q: I looked through your FAQ's to solve my problem of trying to make the background of the top dhtml slide menu transparent. I set the itemBackColor to transparent and also menuBackColor to transparent. Do I have to changeanother setting to activate this? Right now it is currently white and I can't even find a spot that would make it white, unless it's just white by default.
A: Check that you haven't set background color in the Individual Styles.Q: I have the trial of deluxe menu. We are in the process of purchasing it.
I just noticed that the div drop down menu are not going in front of a flash element that is on the page.
I have set the "opaque" value as per your faq.
Any other things I should check to get the div drop down menu to be in front of the flash element?
A: You should add the following function in the beginning of your data file
function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
return false;
}

Q: In my previous email asking about your menu program's ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page, I made a mistake - I was experimenting with Vista xp1 style, the black/blue shiny dhtml menu templates.
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
