Q: Is there a way to increase the margin between the text on the main tree menu and the edge of the dhtml menu control. The text appears to be right up against the left margin.
A: You can add symbol before item's text, for example:
[" Deluxe Tree: XP Style","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
or you can write:
["+<div style='padding-left: 15px;'>Deluxe Tree: XP Style</div>","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "0", "", ],
Actually you can use any html code within dhtml menu control items.
Q: I would like insert a menu in a asp webpage, but in this case the accents in the labels are not displayed.
Any idea about that?

var menuItems = [
["É","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: The submenu should look identical to the main menu but it is not allowing this.
Even though parameters are set to 0 it is showing smart scroll and also not showing the sub menus how they should be.
I also notice and error in the templates window view when I am looking at the javascript onmouseover menu.
A: You've set the exact width for your submenus:
var smHeight="21px"; // it is the height of the whole submenu
It is not right.
Try to write:
var smHeight="";

Now you have:
var pressedItem="";
It is not correct. Try to set:
var pressedItem="-2";
See the attached example.
Q: Now I wonder what I have to do in my script to make dhtml sub menu be displayed horizontal instead of vertical. I want them to display vertical be left - aligned and be shown by a white Background. How can I achieve this?
A: You should set the following parameters:

var smOrientation=1; //horizontal orientation of submenus
set white backcolor for submenus
["itemWidth=60px","itemBackColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBorderWidth=0","itemBorderStyle=none,",
"itemBorderColor=#FFFFFF,", "fontColor=#404040,#404040","fontDecoration=none,underline"],
