Q: Hi there. I need to be able to customize the x & y coordinates of each submenu in the javascript horizontal menu. I don't see such a control in the GUI interface. How can I do this?
A: Unfortunately it is not possible to set these parameters for eachsubmenu individually. You can set them for all submenus.
Use the following parameters ('Positioning' section):
var topDX=0;
var topDY=1;
var DX=-5;
var DY=0;
Q: There's no explanation of what to do after creating a dhtml menu example or where to paste the code, which files to upload..
A: 1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New"
and add items and subitems using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on
the main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters"window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site

You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems

You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML (you can't do it inthe MAC version).

<script type="text/javascript"> var WorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>

Q: Thank you for the information. I have been successful in getting the drop down menu select to appear on my index.htm file.
I'm having some problems fine tuning it. I placed the code and files as indicated on the file. What I get is a menu appearing at the top of the page and a link titled: Trial Version where I want the menu to appear.
The other problem I am having is that the drop down menu select is left justified and I would like it to be centered on my page (table).
A: Check that you're using relative position for the drop down menu select. You shouldset:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
