Q: In my previous email asking about your menu program's ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page, I made a mistake - I was experimenting with Vista xp1 style, the black/blue shiny dhtml menu templates.
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can 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 can't get the popup menu sample (rightclick) to work in Opera. Does Deluxe-menu support opera for right-clicking?
Does Deluxe-menu have a gwt wrapper so we can use deluxe-menu as part of a GWT application?
A: Unfortunately, Opera doesn't support onContextMenu event.
More info you can find, for example, here:

Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Google Web Toolkit extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files.
To create and configure your menus use Deluxe Tuner application(included into the trial package):

Please, try the trial version.
Q: I was trying to figure something out myself but after a lot of hours I decided I will contact you.
I am working on a javascript collapsing menu and I am using the XP style one.
I don’t know why but the align of the text is not moving to the right side (because in Israel we write from right to left)
The sub-menu works great and all the text align to the right but from some reason the title is unmovable.
Please if you know any solution to that problem?
A: See how you can create your top javascript collapsing menu items:
- you can set the following parameter:
var tXPAlign="right"; //align of expand-buttons of submenus titles
- write your top items:
["+<div align=right> Deluxe Tree: XP Style</div>","", "", "", "", "XP Title Tip", "", "0", "", "", ],
Q: We are in the stage of design, we have a requirement to have the right click drop down menu fly out from right to left.
A: The following parameter controls the ways of showing submenus:
From left to right:
var subMenuAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="top";
From left to right + upwards:
var subMenuAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
From right to left:
var subMenuAlign="right";
var subMenuVAlign="top";
From right to left + upwards:
var subMenuAlign="right";
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
