Q: I’m interested in buying your products. I have no experience in programming, only know html/php. How easy would it be to set up these mouseover menus?

2. You should install the menu on your page. You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).
Add several rows into your html page.
<head> ... <!-- Deluxe Menu --> <noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript> <script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file created in Deluxe Tuner. ... </head>
You should also copy all engine files: dmenu.js dmenu4.js dmenu_add.js dmenu_dyn.js dmenu_key.js dmenu_cf.js dmenu_popup.js dmenu_ajax.js dmenu_search.js into "deluxe-menu.files/" folder. You should place this folder in thesame folder with your index. html page.
Try that.

Q: I cannot get the separator image to display in my dhtml right click menu. Is there a setting I am missing? I want to separate the main menu items with an image.
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical dhtml right click menu) var separatorWidth="100%"; var separatorHeight="3px"; var separatorAlignment="right"; var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu) var separatorVWidth="100%"; var separatorVHeight="2px"; var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems (you can do it in DeluxeTuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:
var menuItems = [ ["item 1"], ["-"], // this item is separator ["item 2"], ];
