Q: Can I use data from a SQL server using ASP for drop down menu code?
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.)
];
Unfortunately we don't have examples with ASP and SQL.
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: When viewed in the DeLuxe Tuner preview mode everything is OK and as desired, but in the IE8 view the dropdown menus are still centered instead of flush left.
A: Try to install the menu in the following way:
<td align="center">
<span style='text-align:left'>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js">
</script>
</span></td>Q: http://deluxe-tabs.com/file/templates/deluxe-tabs-style-5.html I like the transitional fade of onclick tab data between tabs of this menu, but I don't see anything in Transitional Effect variables to manipulate this.
A: You can set transitional effects in the "Transitional Effects"section in Deluxe Tuner.
//--- Transitional Effects
var btransition=24;
var btransOptions="";
var btransDuration=300;
Notice that Transitional Effects are supported by IE5.5+ only.Q: Trialling your menu maker. Was trying to get the tabs dhtml menu bulder working,but it gives me the error "Tabs[...].id is null or not an object" within the program and under IE7, but not under Mozilla Firefox. Obviously the tabs will be used on my website, of which 80-90% of traffic is MS-IE.
Do you know about this problem, and is there a fix. This will be a major stumbling block against me buying the product if this problem is not fixable.
A: Try to set the following dhtml menu bulder parameter:
var bselectedSmItem=0;
