Q: I am trying to implement Deluxe Menu 2.0 on a .aspx-page.
However the Norwegian characters are not showed correctly. (only in the menu)
What do I need to do?
It works fine with the old version of Deluxe Menu in our normal asp-pages.
A: When you call data .js file you can try to specify the encoding:
< SCRIPT src="Dansk Aktionarforening11_files/data.js" charset="UTF-8"> </SCRIPT>
or
<SCRIPT src="Dansk Aktionarforening11_files/data.js" charset="ISO-8859-1"> </SCRIPT>
Try that.
Q: Is there any way to keep a menu lit up when going to another page? Or do the menus always have to default back to their normal state?
I want the menu to know what page the user is on and keep that section highlighted. Any ideas?
A: You should 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 am using the deluxe tree menu but i am facing problem while using ajax
so can you please guide me how can i use the ajax functionality for the dhtml tree..
A: To enable AJAX Tree Menu use the following menu parameters:
var tajax=1; // enables AJAX technology support
Each .js file must contain menuItems variable for the submenu in the following format:
var tmenuItems = [
[text, link, icon1, icon2, icon2, tip, target, itemStyle, submenuStyle, jsFileName],
];
Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server that contains tmenuItems variable for the submenu.

Q: Just one more question.
I'm making a drop menu sample but I want the dropdown sub menus to drop up!
ie: the nav bar will actually be at the bottom of the page so when you hover over, I need the sub items to rise up.
Can you force this? I can't seem to find anywhere to do it.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
