Q: I use your licensed deluxe menu and I got a customer specific issue:
Is it possible to set no background color for the menus first level and a background color for all submenus?
I couldn't find a parameter to set different variables for main level and sublevels...
Thank you for your feedback
A: You should use Individual Styles for your subitems.
var menuBackColor="";
var itemBackColor=["",""];
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=#81BEC9,#CCE6EA"], //style0
];
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", ], //style

Q: I wonder if you can help me. I've uploaded all my files, including the menus to the client site.
All the menus were working fine, where each link was targeted to the frame "mainFrame" in the middle of the page. This morning, all the css javascript menu link targets don't work anymore. That is, the targeting info has not changed but the linked pages are opening up as a _parent page -- that is, replacing the entire page.
A: You should use absolute paths.
See the url browser tried to open:
http://domain.com/a_bp/bpdoc/3sell/32_sales_order_management/321_sales_order/
7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
instead of:
http://domain.com/7operations/72_monitor_operations/index.html
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameter allows to make links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Please, try to use this parameter.
Q: I have seen a certain menu effect on a few websites and have so far been unable to reproduce it in simply HTML/CSS. Today I saw the effect on a website, looked at the source code and it appears they are using some of your code.
I have a fairly typical screen layout with a menu bar on the left hand 10% of the screen and the main screen content on the right 90%. Some of my screens get very long, so that when you scroll all the way down to the bottom, the menu is left way up off screen. I would like the menu block to move down so that it is always a certain number of pixels below the top of the viewed screen, not the absolute top of the page. Is this something your software does? If so, which one of your products?
A: You can create such menu with Deluxe Menu.
You should use floatable menu, so you can always see the menu.
But to use the floatable feature
var floatable=1;
you should use the absolute position for the menu
var absolutePos=1;
var posX="10";
var posY="10";
Please, try the trial version of the menu.
Q: My menu does not work with IE7 (I don't know if it works with IE6) but it works perfectly in FF and Netscape. HELP!!!
A: You have several errors in your data file.
Please, check that you don't have additional spaces in yourparameters.
For example:
var fontColor=["#F3E398 ","#F3E398 "];
var itemBackColor=["#43597E","#9B1313 "];
"fontColor=#F3E398 ,#F3E398 "
