Q: I think that your product is great makes everything look nice and professional with the drop down menu Items. My question is I have certain menu Items that I will need to disable at certain times. I do this now using a standard button and grabbing my parameters from an SQL database. Is there a way for me to basically pull which menu items I need disabled and present the customized menu for each client. I have read that your product has this ability I was looking for a little guidance or maybee a write up on someone that has done this.
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu doesn't have such a feature.
You should write your own code, for example, on PHP.
You can try to use the following function
function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(1, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
The example you can find on our site
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/dynamic-functions-sample.html
Please, see the source code on this page.
Q: We are testing you menu in our application. It is being used in cross frame mode. It works very nicely except a couple issues.
The main one is after loading a new page in the sub menus window when I go back to the main menu to select another option but on the initial mouse over it takes several seconds for the menu to come up. Once the delay of loading the initial submenu is over it loads all others very quickly until a new page is loaded again. Is there a way to optimize the menu to reduce this load time? I have already set dm_writeAll=0 but that only increased the speed of the initial display of the main menu.
And the other question is does the dmObjectsCheck option work in cross frame mode? I have it set =1 and the submenus still underneath objects (such as select list) which have a higher z order.
A: Try to do the following:
move all <script> calls into <head>, but delete dm_initFrame()function from data .js file -- move them instead of files calls, i.e.:
<head>
<script src=data.js>
...
</head>
...
<div><script>dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 1); </script></div>
It this case data will be loaded when <head> will load, but after thatmenus must be shown quickly.
Let me know about results.
Deluxe Menu overlap select objects in cross-frame mode.

Q: I have a website where the customer asks (requested popup) for a onclick popup window so they can listen in to a radio braodcast. i.e. popup on demand.
But, the popup needs to keep working so the user can move to another website without dropping the broadcast. In otherwords If the popup is dropped so is the broadcast. That is my issues. Help! Also, using a standard popup windows doesn't always work Cross browsers and IE works ok but Firefox still allows the user to resize the windows even if you tell it not to.
A: No, it is not possible to leave the onclick popup window after you close thepage with popup.
