Q: I purchased your product yesterday and was quite impressed, but I am having a bit of a problem with my submenuitems. In the general menu properties there is a "Global"   var titemHeight = 22; My problem is that I would like my upper level of my free tree menu to have one itemheight and my submenuitems to have a smaller height. Is this possible?

A: In the XP Style
  var tXPStyle=1;
the item's height for the top items and submenus will be different.

If you want to use
  var tXPStyle=0;

you can set ite's height for the submenus:
  var titemHeight=16;

And for other items use the blank icon with the height you want to have for the upperlevel of your menu items.


Q: I have menus generated by you deluxe menu package . They look fine on all my computer but look bad on my friends computer.
Can this be fixed?


A: Thanks for your interest in our products.

Try to specify all units in "px", for example:

  var menuHeight="22px";

Try to set exact width for menu item
  var menuWidth="736px";

Try also not to set
  var smWidth="0";
  var smHeight="0";

Please, see the attached data file.

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: Hello, you write, that your menu is search engine friendly.

But viewing the source of your samples, I don't see anything search engine friendly in there.

A Javascript is called, that's all, which I doublt could ever be Search Engine friendy?

The only thing I have seen as search engine friendly is the menu you have added at your own homepage.

Can this be set at your menue automatically?

Can you let me know, if the menu supports this kind. Your Features and Functions don't say anything about that either.


A: Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:

<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com"&glt;menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>

To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).


Q: Hi- I'm having a problem with a really wide horizontal code drop down menu. Rather than have it be so wide (due to the large number of items in it) we want it to wrap into a new row underneath the top so a visitor to the site doesn't have to use the scroll bar to scroll to the right to see the whole menu.

A: You can use multicolumn feature of Deluxe Menu, see example

or
Smart Scrolling
