To expand specific items you should use API function
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)Q: I would like to know how I indicate on a javascript menu, an item that was selected.
So in other words, if I have a horizontal navigation and I select the 3rd index along the menu
and select something from this, how can I make the 3rd index highlighted?
A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Deluxe 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"> var pressedItem=3;</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: Do I have the ability to change colors for the menus and the sub menus?
A: You can use different colors for each item and subitem of the menu.
You should use individual item styles.

Q: The menu doesn't show the drop down sub items. If you would look at the script there are two sublinks for Accommodation which however is not visible when we are doing a mouseover. I have attached the revised data.js file with this mail. Please let me know if thre is anything else hat i need to look into.
A: You should set back color for your submenus.
For example you should create style and assign it for the subitems:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#61420A,#B77D13","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid",,
"itemBorderColor=#3C2906,#3C2906"],//style0
];
["Accommodation","#", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|test1 text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //style0
["|test2 text text text text","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],//style0
You should also set the following parameters:
var itemAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
