A: You can save your data file in UTF-8 in Windows version of DeluxeTuner v3.2.7.
You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.
In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode.
Enter these symbols and save your data file.

É - Capital E, acute accent - E
ç - Small c, cedilla - c

["ç....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: I noticed your excellent smart scroll menu and have a question about it; I notice that it renders the menu from a javascript array - is it possible to make the menu run on an HTML unordered list? The reason being that it's much better for SEO if the dhtml side menu links are actually in the HTML rather than in a huge javascript variable.
A: No, it is not possible. Deluxe Menu is javascript menu.
You can generate search engine friendly code and install it on yourpage.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
Q: Now, I need your help in another question: I can set "tpressedFontColor" to have the font of the active item in the dhtml tree menu take this color.
How can I make the onmouseover - background ("titemBackImage" of the individual style set in the item parameters) of the menu item also be saved in the active, selected dhtml tree menu item? I need to build a menu with different background-images (shown on mouseover and when active) for each item, so I cannot set ONE "titemBackImage" that fits for all.
Thank you very much, Irene. And yes, I really love this product.
A: Unfortunately it is not possible now to set background color orbackground image for the selected state. Deluxe tree doesn't have sucha feature now.
But we'll try to add this feature in the next versions of Deluxe Tree.
Q: Hello. I had a question about the vista templates. Is it possible to extend the width on the java menu buttons to get more text in them? I put to much text and the button is repeating itself. Is there a way to extend the width of the button without the repeat?
A: See images in Vista Templates have the fixed width and height (92 x 21).
You can try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items, for example:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
But you should create a small images in any Graph Editor, for example:
button_n_back.gif
button_n_left.gif
button_n_right.gif
button_o_back.gif
button_o_left.gif
button_o_right.gif
