Q: I am using cross frame menu dropdown. I have three frames: Top, Left and main (middle).

I am using the script and data from your sample file; it works fine. Only problem is submenu is offset to the right. It does not show up exactly down below the top menu.

What could be the problem?

A: Deluxe Menu doesn't work correctly (incorrect submenu position) if youhave complex frame structure.

The problem is in a structure of your frameset.
Mozilla browsers can't determine absolute coordinates for a frame, so submenus drop down with an offset.

You should create, for example, the following frameset structure:

--|------------
   | menu
--|------------
   |
   | submenus
   |

Now a top row has 2 columns and all browsers can determine a width of the 1st column in the second row.

You should write init function in the following way in that case:
dm_initFrame("mainframe",1,3,0);



Q: I recently started using a new software program on my home page and am running into an issue with your drop down menu in css working with this software.

Basically no matter what I change the DmZorder to drop down menu in css always shows up behind the dhtml windows that I am trying to use.

After working with their support team they have stated that they believe the problem exists within the menus and I am attaching a screenshot they sent me.

Can you please assist me in resolving this issue?

A: Try to delete the following properties from #main style:

POSITION: absolute; TOP: 0px; LEFT: 0px;

See the attached example.

Set also units in "px":

  var itemPadding="2px";

It helps to display the drop down menu in css correctly in all browsers.



Q: We want the javascript dhtml drop down menu which have sub menu to have a arrow, so that the visitor know that they have to cliek there. We have put in arrow on the tab which are having drop downs, but on mouse over to the single javascript dhtml drop down menu also it is showing the arrow and another problem is that when the drop down is used then there after the arrow is no more visible.

A: You can create Individual XP Style and use it for items with submenus:

  var tXPExpandBtn=["left.files/blank-arrow.gif","left.files/blank-arrow.gif", "left.files/blank-arrow.gif","left.files/blank-arrow.gif"];

  var tXPStyles = [
["tXPExpandBtn=left.files/menu-arrow.gif,left.files/menu-arrow.gif, left.files/menu-arrow01.gif,left.files/menu-arrow01.gif"],
];

and assign this style for all top items with submenus:

["+Company Profile","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ], //style0
 ["|Item 25","", "", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 26","", "", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["+Projects","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ], //style0
 ["|Item 27","", "", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 28","", "", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["+Services","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "0", "", ], //style0

Try that.



Q: Javascript menu frame Borders are present Firefox but missing in IE7, IE8, Google Chrome, Safari.

Firefox shows the borders ok.

A: You've set the following parameters in this menu:
  var menuBorderColor="#FF9191 #FF7837 #E10000 #952D00 ";
  var menuBorderWidth=3;
  var menuBorderStyle="";

You should specify style for your border, for example:
  var menuBorderStyle="solid";

See the attached example. I cannot notice such issue on Safari forWin. Write what version you're using.

Change also
  var fontStyle=["normal 8pt Verdana,normal 8pt Verdana","normal 8pt Verdana,normal 8pt Verdana"];
to
  var fontStyle=["normal 8pt Verdana","normal 8pt Verdana"];
