Q: I am trying to create a tab menu and I have some questions.
I want each tab in a hover tab menu has a different image,
the normal and hover state uses the same image and the selected state uses a different image.
A: If you want to use different images you should use Individual Item Styles and assign them for your tabs.
var bstyles = [
["bitemBackImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_back.gif",
"bbeforeItemImage=deluxe-tabs.files/style04_n_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif,deluxe-tabs.files/style04_s_left.gif",

Q: I'm trying to set the z-index of a popup menu javascript. Can I do this in the data.js file?
A: Deluxe Menu has very high z-index - z-index:999999.
Actually you can find this code in dmenu.js file and change.
Q: Is there a way to hide a menu options in the navigation menu using either CSS or the java api based on the site user?
A: Deluxe Menu supports Javascript API.
You can find more info here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
You can try to use API functions in that case:
function dm_ext_changeItemVisibility (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, visibility)
To disable items you should set the target parameter to "_".
You can try to use the following function
function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(0, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
Q: I tried to add a fixed width on some of the items that I thought had too much empty space on the right of the text but would not work. Is it possible to have a fixed amount of pixels after the text for all navigation items of the css drop-down menu?
A: You can set padding parameter in the following way:
var itemPadding="3px 15px 3px 3px";
top right bottom left
