Recent Questions

Q: We are showing the "incorrect copyright" on our menu for some reason and I need you to look at the code. It's been this way for about a month. My company is going to make me stop using your menu if I can't get the issue corrected so please help me determine why we are suddenly having this problem.

The notice shows up on IE 6, but not IE 7.


A: "Incorrect Copyright" means that the script can't find required copyright parameters.
To avoid this, please, change:

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2" src="dmenu.js"></script>

to:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->

Q: I have tried various different ways,I cannot get a separator image I have specified in the Separators section to display for the navigation-bar-menu. I have verified that the image exists, but still nothing.

A: To add a separator you should

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical 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 Deluxe
Tuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:

   ["||All Images","gallery_all.html", , , , "_self", , , , ],
   ["||-"],
   ["||Pricing & Ordering Info","gallery_pricing.html", , , ,"_self", , , , ],
