Q: I just noticed another problem: when I set dmObjectsCheck=1 and I click on a menu-item of the dropdown menu nothing happens! No matter whether the banner is flash or not. And no matter if the browser is IE or Firefox. As soon as I set dmObjectsCheck=0 the submenu works again.
A: You should set the following parameter
var dmObjectsCheck=1;
You should also add dmenu_add.js file into the folder with yourdmenu.js file.
Please, check it.
Q: From your website, I see that you are able to populate a menu through ASP/VB, but I have not been able to figure out how this is done.
How exactly do you use an ASP script to generate the menu items for the dynamic menu?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
Unfortunately we don't have examples with ASP and SQL.
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: I am interested in purchasing Deluxe Menu. But I want to use drop down navigation menu on my PC only, not on Internet and not on Intranet or local host! I want to use it to make presentations similar to PowerPoint but it will only sit on my PC.
Is it possible to buy a license where I can have your software on my PC alone and not get the Trial Message? I am ready to pay for it.
A: You can use Deluxe Menu on local machine with the Developer license only.
Single and Multiple licenses allow you to use the menu on the Internet/Intranet websitesonly.
You can try to use another product - Vista Buttons, http://vista-buttons.com
Vista Buttons Home License - $49.95.
This license will suit you.Q: The contact page drop down menu examples would not work with the Firefox browser. And the submenu would show a white bg in the Internet Explorer browser.
A: Your color parameters are incorrect:
var itemBackColor=["91C24D","8B3A96"];
var itemBorderColor=["ffffff","ffffff"];
You should write them in the following way:
var itemBackColor=["#91C24D","#8B3A96"];
var itemBorderColor=["#ffffff","#ffffff"];
