Q: I have recently downloaded your menu, I love, and am definitely going to purchase it, however i do have a question, I made my site with dreamweaver mx, and it is designed in a series of tables, the main table is 3 column and on row, stretched at 100% width and length, the other tables are nested inside the middle column, I am trying to get the menu in the left column to float, I have read some of the other post in the support section, and I was wondering if their could be any <div> anywhere on the page or just before and after the menu script code?
here is the way my code is before and after the script code
<td width="17%" align="left" valign="top" background="images/LPback.png">
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
</td>
this defines the column in which I want the menu to be,
here is my code for the floatable menu
//--- Positioning
var tabsolute=1;
var tleft="0px";
var ttop="205px";
//--- Floatable Menu
var tfloatable=1;
var tfloatIterations=10;
var tfloatableX=1;
var tfloatableY=1;
A: You should add the following parameter:
<script type="text/javascript"> var tWorkPath="data.files/";</script>
See more info about installation here:

You should also add dtree_add.js file in the "data.files/" folder.
Q: I use menu with color graphic buttons, I believe the color buttons locate in @BOOK1\@Test_BOOK1.files.
At this directory level(please look in Book1.zip), the display is OK,
However, if I click on "06) Introduction.to.Small-Signal.Amplifiers\<>>(06_IT.htm)" to move to the next level, the color buttons will not display properly.
Can I set pointer that tells file 06_IT.htm that I have "@Test_BOOK1.files" in "@BOOK1" folder?
A: You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: We purchased your deluxe menu two months ago. Right now, I try to resize the menu icon to fit our website. I changed MenuHeight, I got duplicate menu icons. I also want to change Menu Icon font, but I couldn't do it. We have your previous version menu system, As soon as we change bigger font for Menu Icon, it will be resize. I really think you sould have this function. Otherwise, I got create my own image.
A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x21).
If you want to change items' width/height you should change images.
btn_magentablack.gif
btn_magenta.gif
You can do it in any graph editor, for example in Adobe PhotoShop.
To change font in the top items you should change your Individual ItemStyle.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11px
Tahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-03.files/btn_magentablack.gif,data-vista-03.files/btn_magenta.gif"],
];
You can do it in Deluxe Tuner.
Q: I am having a difficult time trying to integrate your menu into a frame system of my clients. The url that I am testing at is...
I believe that I have followed your instructions to the letter, but can't seem to get the cross-frame system to work. Any help would be appreciated.
A: Please, check dmWorkPath parameter. You should write in the followingway:
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> var dmWorkPath = "nav_011907_files/";</SCRIPT>
See also how you should write your dm_init function
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 1);
Please, notice also that Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only.
It can't work correctly within nested framesets. It is possible that you'll havesome errors.
