Q: I use your licensed deluxe menu and I got a customer specific issue:
Is it possible to set no background color for the menus first level and a background color for all submenus?
I couldn't find a parameter to set different variables for main level and sublevels...
Thank you for your feedback
A: You should use Individual Styles for your subitems.
var menuBackColor="";
var itemBackColor=["",""];
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#81BEC9,#CCE6EA"], //style0
];
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: We currentlly have a menu that uses standard html hyperlinks to open a new window with _blank as the target. Unfortunately, the size of the window is controlled by the browser and we want to be able to control it. The only way that we know how to do that is to use the window.open client-side function and pass the window's dimensions. Here is a sample of the code that would do that:
window.open("url","_blank","height=1024,width=768,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no");
How can we add the javascript code to the down menus css instead of a link? Do you have any samples?
A: You can use javascript code within menuItems, for example
["Test Window","javascript:window.open('http://www.microsoft.com','_blank','height=1024,width=768,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no');", , ,'Monitor Exceptions' , ,'0', '0',,],
Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?
A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:
c:/website/data.js
and your images are stored here:
c:/website/images/
you should set image name so (for example):
var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];
If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: My menu does not work with IE7 (I don't know if it works with IE6) but it works perfectly in FF and Netscape. HELP!!!
A: You have several errors in your data file.
Please, check that you don't have additional spaces in yourparameters.
For example:
var fontColor=["#F3E398 ","#F3E398 "];
var itemBackColor=["#43597E","#9B1313 "];
"fontColor=#F3E398 ,#F3E398 "
