Q: I was looking for a feature to reverse the order of items added dynamically to the drop down html menu
I'm not sure where to find it or how to go about getting this new feature incorporated into my code.
Could you please help me and tell me where to go next?
A: To add your items dynamically in the specific position you should usethe following function:
dm_ext_addItemPos(mInd, smInd, iParamsArr, Pos)
where Pos - the position in the menu where you want to add new item(starts with 0).
Check that you have dmenu_dyn.js file in the same folder with dmenu.js
file and set
var dynamic=1;
parameter.Q: Can title attributes be added to a drop down menu html code?

var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...

Q: Shouldn’t the dhtml expand menu know what page you are on and expand accordingly?
Or would you need to ‘hard code’ each page to be expanded basedon that page?
A: You should set the following parameter
var ttoggleMode=1;
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
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-samples/tree-menuxp-save-state.htm
To expand specific items you should use API function
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
Try that.
Q: No matter where I place the code, the html free menu always appears in the top left of the page,
I need it elsewhere obviously but it simply won't move.
A: You're using absolute position for the menu now.
You should use relative position in that case.
Change the following parameters:
var absolutePos=0;
var posX="0px";
var posY="0px";
