Q: I place all of my files in folders. If I want the Deluxe menu to work I have to have the Deluxe menu saved in each folder for it to work with the files inside those folders.
A: There is no need to copy al files for the menu in each folder.
To install the menu you can use such paths:
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "../menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: Just wondering if it's possible to have the sub menu of my collapsible dhtml menu that appear when the "+" is clicked stay open when another page loads. I tried downloading the trial version & can't get that to happen.
Click on "web development" and then "web design portfolio" - when the new page loads the menu closes. Is it possible to have it remember which sub menus were showing when the new page loads?
A: Deluxe Tree has save state feature. You should set the followingparameter:
var tsaveState=1;

A: Now you have:
var fontStyle=["nirmal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","nirmal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];
It is not correct. You should write:
var fontStyle=["normal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma","normal 12px Trebuchet MS, Tahoma"];
Q: I have the dynamic dropdown menu working perfectly on the main page of the website, but when I try to install it onto html files that appear in subfolders of the site, the images do not appear. I have put ../ before all the links I can find and have the following codes placed in my file, what am I doing wrong?
A: You can use additional parameters to make dynamic dropdown menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";

var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];

http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
