Q: Can I change some of the properties of a browser popup window after it has been created/opened?
A: You can use deluxePopupWindow.open() function to open your popup:
function deluxePopupWindow.open("winID", "content", "header", "param", "skin", "contentType")
Find more info:

Call this function once again with new parameters when you want to reload the window (usethe same winID).Q: My question is how can I change the size and color of the font for the
main items in the simple dhtml menu, not the drop downs?
A: You can use Individual Item Styles in that case:
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
Set the style you need for subitems:
var fontStyle=["normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","normal 11px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];
Set the style you need for main items:
var itemStyles = [
["fontStyle='bold 12px Arial','bold 12px Arial'"], // style 0
];
Assign this style for main items:
var menuItems = [
["Scenic album","scenic-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["|Item 8","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|Item 9","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
> ["|Item 10","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ], ["Floral album","floral-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Southwest album","southwest-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
["Wildlife album","wildlife-album.htm", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //assign style 0
];
Q: Hello. I'm trying your javascript expanding menu but cant get a clicked menu to stay highlighted. It works sometimes in Firefox but never in explorer.
With sometimes I mean that if I click a link and that paticular link leeds to nowhere, and i've to click the browsers back button.....then the link I clicked is highlighted when I return. If I make a link that leeds to a new page (with exactly the same code as was generated from delux tuner), then nothing is highlighted. Does this 'higlightstate' work at all?
A: Javascript expanding menu 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 apyt_ext_setPressedItem(menuInd, itemID)
<script type="text/javascript">
var I = 4 //index of the selected item
onload=setPressed;
function setPressed()
{
dtreet_ext_setPressedItem(0,dtreet_ext_getItemIDByIndex(0, i));
}
</script>
Q: We purchased your software and would like a way to give our users the ability to right click (or equivalent) and open a link in to a new window.
Is there a way to do this? If not, do you have a work around that people have found helpful.
As an example, I have a menu item that goes to http://www.google.com. Typically, it loads this in to one of our frames. However, I would like the end user to have the ability to either load it in to one of our existing frames or to load it in its own window.
A: You can try to write the following code for your items:
["<a href='index.html' target='_blank' class='home'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
And create styles
.home{
color: #FFFFFF;}
.home:hover{
color: #FFBEBE;}
