Q: I can see that you can have multi menus on the same page can you have multi tabs? I did create two different tab menus and when I put them on the same page they display correctly but you cannot navigate to the required web pages.
A: You can use as many tabs on the one page as you want.
But notice that you should call dtabs.js file on each page only once.
There is no need to call it several times on the one page.
You can see such examples in the trial package:
c:\Program Files\Deluxe Menus\deluxe-tabs\tab-style-mac.html
Q: > You should call the following function:
> dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex (0, 12)
> where 12 - is index of the item.
How would I know that 12 is the index of the item? How is itemInd different from its itemID? I assume the menuInd is always 0 for the first menu (or only in my case) menu on a page?
A: Yes, menuInd is the number of the menu on your page (in your casemenuInd=0).
itemInd is the number of the item in your menuItems, for example:
var tmenuItems =
[
["Home", "http://deluxe-tree.com", "icon1_t.gif", "icon1_to.gif","", "Home Page Tip","_blank"],//itemInd=0
["<img src='data_files/images/sep.gif' width=113 height=1>"],//itemInd=1
["+What's New<br><span id='letter'>This is pretty cool. I need to buy this deluxe menu</span>", "", "icon2_t.gif", "icon2_to.gif", "", "Product Info Tip"],//itemInd=2
["|What's New", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=3
["|Features", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=4
["|Installation", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=5
["|Functions", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=6
["|Supported Browsers", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=7
["Samples", "", "icon3_t.gif", "icon3_to.gif", "", "Samples Tip"], //itemInd=8
["|Sample 1", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=9
["|Sample 2", "testlink.htm", ""], //itemInd=10
["|Sample 3", "", ""], //itemInd=11
["||New Sample 1", "testlink.htm", ""],//itemInd=12
["||New Sample 2", "testlink.htm", ""],//itemInd=13
Q: Hi- I'm having a problem with a really wide horizontal code drop down menu. Rather than have it be so wide (due to the large number of items in it) we want it to wrap into a new row underneath the top so a visitor to the site doesn't have to use the scroll bar to scroll to the right to see the whole menu.
A: You can use multicolumn feature of Deluxe Menu, see example
http://deluxe-menu.com/multicolumn-menu-sample.html
or
Smart Scrolling

Q: I have made use of the Ajax function in Deluxe Menu. It has made maintenance of a rather complex menu system a lot easier.
I went to generate a Site Map in dhtml menu builder today and realized a shortcoming of using Ajax submenus, the Site Map doesn't show Ajax submenus.
It would be great to have an option in the Generate Site Map (as well as Google XML and Google Search) to include Ajax submenus for a complete picture of the web site.
A: Unfortunately there are such problems with saving of AJAX submenus.
It is not possible to save AJAX submenus in Deluxe Tuner now and it is not possible tocreate search engine friendly code and sitemap for the AJAX submenus.
We'll try to add such features in the future versions of Deluxe Tuner.
