See, how you should install flash on your pages.

Q: Do you have an extremely simple example of modifying a dynamic drop down menus with the JavaScript API? I've played with the example on the site, but I have trouble removing the other menus without breaking it.
I just want to use the API to change the icon on the menu items.
A: You should use the following function:
function dm_ext_changeItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams)
<script language="javascript" >
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 0, 1, ["", "", "new_icon.gif", "new_icon_o.gif", "",,""]);
</script>
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.htmlQ: Thanks for your information, and the program is very useful and user friendly compare with others.
But I have a question, pls see the following example.
inside the menu.js (the file which we will run as navigation bar)
var menuItems = [
["Member's Home","membersarea.php", "menu.files/icon_xp2_7.gif", "menu.files/icon_xp2_7o.gif", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Submit Items","sellitem.php", "menu.files/selling0.gif", "menu.files/selling1.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Wall / Friend List","membersarea.php", "menu.files/inbox0.gif", "menu.files/inbox1.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
when setup running the php file directly is no problem
however, as we have some links will have different values as the end (have problem running at the menu)
such as blog.php?ownid=4497
there is having a dynamic value at the end
at our php files we use
<a href="blog.php?blogger=<?=$auctionDetails['ownerid'];?>">
Any suggestion for this case? or you can give us some example?
A: The following link should work fine in Deluxe Menu:
["Item 1","blog.php?blogger=<?=$auctionDetails['ownerid'];?>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
You can also try to move menuItems and dm_init(); function to your page inside <script>tag:
<script>
var menuItems = [
["Member's Home","membersarea.php", "menu.files/icon_xp2_7.gif","menu.files/icon_xp2_7o.gif", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Submit Items","sellitem.php", "menu.files/selling0.gif","menu.files/selling1.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Wall / Friend List","membersarea.php", "menu.files/inbox0.gif", "menu.files/inbox1.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
</script>
