Q: I bought the Deluxe Menu system for one website. Javascript select menu works well on all versions of IE that I tried (5,6,7)
However, the background and shadow do not render in Firefox. As a result the menu is not as attractive.
Can you help with this or am I stuck?
A: You should add Individual Item style and assign it for the top javascript select menu items:
var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=20px"],
];
["Home","index.shtml", "", "", "First Page", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ],
["Communication","", "", "", "", "", "0", "-1", "", "", "", ],
...
Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer5.5+ only.

Q: I am trying to create a multicolumn dhtml navigation menu and nothing appears when I upload it to my server. I am attaching my menu called menu.js that I have created and placed in a folder called menudir.
Can you please advise, thank you.
A: You can find more info here:
http://www.deluxe-menu.com/highlighted-items-sample.html
Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">dhtml navigation menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem. You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.Q: I was testing your suite and I like it very much, but I do have problems with IE 7 (last updates) on a winXP Pro machine. The javascript menu sample doesn't show up on the site. Do you know something about this or can you tell me what I have made wrong? I tried the normal export and also the export code for search friendly sites.
Please give me a short hint, what I must change.
Looking forward in hearing from you soon
A: Try to set exact width for the menu.
var menuWidth="400px";
Q: - I downloaded and installed your trial version..
- Selected "Tuner" then "tabs"
- Left pane sorta baffled me - even after reading documentation
- so in preview pane I selected "Templates" and Kaspersky style..
- The preview looked nothing like the kaspersky javascript menu example.. My feeling was that I had to somehow find the image elements to complete the menu tabs.. (A rather daunting task)..
- AM I missing something??
A: To use Kaspersky style javascript menu example you should assign Individual Stylesfor your items. You can find this info in the templates window.
