Q: Can your dhtml drop down menus work in conjunction with a scroll wheel?

A: You cannot scroll submenus using scroll wheel when you set

  var smSmartScroll=1;

To scroll your submenu you should move your mouse.

But you can use scroll wheel when you set

  var smSmartScroll=0;



Q: I want to separate the main items with an image in the website navigation bar.

A: To add a separator you should

//--- Separators
  var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical menu)
  var separatorWidth="100%";
  var separatorHeight="3px";
  var separatorAlignment="right";
  var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu)
  var separatorVWidth="100%";
  var separatorVHeight="2px";
  var separatorPadding="";

You can create separators using menuItems
(you can do it in DeluxeTuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:

  var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];

];

or

  var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", ""]
];
