Q: I am generating a conference website which I though will be out as soon as possible but you javascript menu generator has become impossible to insert in my page, here attached in a sample page, it is basic html, so tell me where am going wrong.
Or otherwise insert it for me.
A: Now you have:
<style type="text/css">
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2007, by Deluxe-Menu.com -->
</style>
It is not correct.
You should write:
<style type="text/css">
</style>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>

Q: The idea is that when you click the button of the menu,
the box that holds the menu links opens like normal, but Instead of having the written links inside the drop down box,
I want to have an item like an image or a search box or some other type of independently running script inside the dhtml xml menu.
A: You can use any html code within menuItems of Deluxe Menu:
["+Deluxe Menu: XP Style <a href='http://domain.com'><img src='default.files/xpicon1_s.gif' width=12 height=12></a>","", "default.files/xpicon1_s.gif", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", ],
["|Home <a href='http://domain.com'><img src='default.files/xpicon1_s.gif' width=12 height=12></a>","testlink.htm", "default.files/icon1_s.gif", "default.files/icon1_so.gif", "", "Home Page Tip", "", "", "", ],
["|Product Info <a href='http://domain.com'><img src='default.files/xpicon1_s.gif' width=12 height=12></a>","", "default.files/icon2_s.gif", "default.files/icon2_so.gif", "", "Product Info Tip", "", "", "", ],
Q: Do you have a template example of creating menu javascripts using data stored in a database?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files,
so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<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>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

A: Notice, when you have several dhtml tabs menus on the one page you should calldtabs.js file only once.
<script type="text/javascript" src="Top_Center1.files/dtabs.js"></script>
