A: Now on your website you're using Deluxe Menu v1.14.

Q: Is it possible to make the javascript menu buttons and the text bigger? Or at least the text larger?
Right now the text is so small that they actually look a little blurry.
The only font I can increase is the font on the dropdown menus. but I cant change the font that appear on the actual tabs. If I could increase the font on them that would be great.
A: You should change font in Individual styles.
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackImage=http://www.pursepage.com/wp-content/themes/pinkdoubleheader/data.files/btn_magentablack.gif,http://www.pursepage.com/wp-content/themes/pinkdoubleheader/data.files/btn_magenta.gif","itemBorderWidth=0", "fontStyle='normal 14px Arial','normal 14px Arial'","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF"],
];
Q: Is it possible to show a menu item in the simple navigation bar as selected by default to indicate what the current page is?
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page.
That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: If I use windows tree menu and published on my web site it is default all javascript tree menu and submenu are opened. I want that all menu is default closed if user click on main menu it will be opened submenu. Please wich parameters I have to change.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var texpanded=0;
Check also that you don't have '+' sign before item's text in the top items, for example:
["+Home","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
...
["+Item1","", "", "", "", "", "", "0", "", ],
