Q: Is it possibly that menu dynamic remembers the last action if I go to previous page?(so the menu stays fault out)
I know TreeMenu does this, but I want to use DeLuxeMenu
A: Deluxe Menu doesn't save state as Deluxe Tree.
But you can set pressed item on each page with Deluxe Menu using
dm_ext_setPressedItem () funtion.

Then I have to go into the data.js file and re-edit the path manually.
A: 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: We are registered users of the Deluxe Menu software. Today I tried to use the Javascript API, but there is something I do not understand and want to ask for support.
First, I set up a very simple menu:
var menuItems=[
['Menu 1'],
['|Submenu 1'],
['Menu 2'],
['|Submenu 2'],
];
This menu is built via dm_init().
Then, I inspect the menu (in Firebug):
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 0)
["dm0m0", 2, "", 0, 1]
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 1)
["dm0m1", 1, "dm0m0i0", 1, 0]
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 2)
["dm0m2", 1, "dm0m0i1", 1, 0]
Ok, there are three submenus. Now I am going to delete one of them:
>>> dm_ext_deleteItem(0, 0, 1)
"Menu 2" disappears on the screen, this works as expected. But now when I re-inspect the menu using the API, I find that the API reports exactly the same as before:
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 0)
["dm0m0", 2, "", 0, 1]
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 1)
["dm0m1", 1, "dm0m0i0", 1, 0]
>>> dm_ext_getSubmenuParams(0, 2)
["dm0m2", 1, "dm0m0i1", 1, 0]
So, it seems the report function continues to know about the original menu structure and reflects it. Am I using the API in a wrong way?
The problem I want to solve is to remove the entire menu dinamico dhtml, in order to rebuild it dynamically. Because I did not see a function aimed to this functionality, my plan was to delete all main menu entries subsequently until the main menu inspector no longer reports an entry. Is there (a better) way to achieve this?
A: Unfortunately, dm_ext_deleteItem() only change visibility of theseitems.
It doesn't delete them completely.
We'll try to fix it in the next versions of Deluxe Menu.
Q: Thanks for your reply, I have another question as follow, I find the tree menu just expand one tree item, if I have expanded one tree when I click it, whether I click another tree to expand it's item and the before expanded tree are maintain expanded, I don't want to close it?
A: Use the following parameters:
var tcloseExpanded = 0; - Enables the mode when 1 item only can be expanded.
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled.
var tcloseExpandedXP = 0; - Enables the mode when 1 submenu only can be expanded (XP-style).
0 - disabled, 1 - enabled.
You can also try to set the following parameter:
var texpandItemClick = 1; - 0 - expand items on a [+]-button click only;
1 - expand items on a mouse click.
