Q: Does your menu have the ability to have small text boxes on it?
For example the search box on your main page under your logo.
A: You can use any html code within item text, for example:
var menuItems = [
["<input type=text value='field'>text", ],
];
Try that.
Q: 1: For the deluxe-menu, can I keep a submenu shown even when my mouse pointer is NOT over the submenu anymore (besides the delay functions?) and hides only after a mouseclick somewhere (like the Microsoft menu of outlook)?
2: Is there a way to use the smartscrolling function (for a vertical menu) on the MAIN menu instead of only for the submenu's?
A: 1) Unfortunately, you can't do it.
You can use Deluxe Tree,

2) Yes, you can't use scrolling in the main menu. But if you have verylarge menu you can use multilevel menu,

Theoretically we can do scrolling in the main menu, but we think that it will be better touse multilevel menu in that case.
Q: The only remaining problem I see is that the html popup menu appears in slightly different positions depending upon where your mouse touches the icon.
Is there a way to make the menu position absolute in respect to the icon? I have tried playing with the menu item parameters that seemed related with no success.
A: See dm_popup() function parameters:
return dm_popup(menuInd, pause, event, x, y)
menuInd - index of the menu on a page, >= 0.
pause - determines the time when the html popup menu will be hidden.
event - constant. Do not change.
x, y - optional. Set these parameters if you want the menu to appear in the specified place.
In other case the menu will be shown in the mouse position.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.
