A: Deluxe Tree doesn't save a presseditem as it saves a tree state. It works within 1 page only and if youreload the page you should set a pressed item using Javascript API:

function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

Please, see here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/functions-info.html

You can also set
  var tsaveState = 1;

More info you can find

To expand specific items you should use API functionfunction dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)

Q: Hello. We need some tech support regarding our deluxe menu.

All of our pages that have the menu code on them are suddenly giving status bar errors that say: "Done, but with errors on page"

When pulling up the error details, the dialog says:

Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0

On pages that do not have the menu at all, we're not getting the error.


A: Now you have such code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="" type="text/javascript">
<!--

  var dmWorkPath = "menu/";

function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
  var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

So, your menu cannot find   var dmWorkPath = "menu/"; parameter on yourpage.

Try to write your code in the following way:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menu/";</script>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="" type="text/javascript" src="menu/dmenu.js"></SCRIPT>

Q: Is it possible for the dhtml navigation to stay within a table for placement (in order to have a centered website content optimized for 1024x768 - and always have the content centered in the browser regardless of larger resolution sizes, etc.)? so the horizontal placement may vary but the vertical placement would remain the same.

I'm sure it is - but have not had success on implementing it.

A: You can place a menu in a TABLE or DIV with aligh="center".

Q: How do I make the submenus sticky i.e. they will not close even when the mouse goes to somewhere else on the page?


A: I've checked your menu in all browsers. I can't see such problem.

You can try to adjust these parameters:

  var transDuration=200; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's showing.

  var transDuration2=100; // Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's hiding.
