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: I am working on creating a new navigation menu with Tree menu.

Q: I would like the button in the sub navigation bar to stay white when you navigate to a particular page..
A: Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<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>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
