Q: Is it possible via code customization to remove the border only forthe top level of js dropdown menu?

A: You can use Individual Item Style in that case.
You should create Individual Style, for example:

  var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderStyle=none,none"], // style 0
];

And assign it for top items:

  var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["Product Info","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
 ["|Features","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: Do you have any working examples of a menu generated using .php from a MySQL database?

Our website is dynamic from a MySQL db and we already have categories and sub-categories. It would be useful if we could use this with our deluxe menu.

I don't know how to set this up, so any assistance would be appreciated.


A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
  var parameter1=value1;
  var parameter2=value2;
etc.

  var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];</script>

The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: Is there a way to capture which dhtml web menu item was clicked and store that information into a database?

Q: Hello, Could you please help me with an alignnment issue with my website. If you go to mt website you will see the problem. I set the x alignment to=266 but the y alignment is left blank because I would like to keep the menu centered on the site.


A: If you want to center the menu paste itwithin the <div> or <table> with a static position and specify a center alignment for it, for example:

<DIV align=center>
<SCRIPT src="data/data.js" type=text/javascript>
</SCRIPT>
</DIV>
Please, set exact value for   var menuWidth parameter, for example:

  var menuWidth = "300px";
This can help to align your menu correctly in all browsers.
Try also to specify units in "px".
Set also:
  var absolutePos = 0;

Try that.
