Q: 1: For the deluxe-menu, can I keep a submenu shown even when my mouse pointer is NOT over the submenu anymore (besides the delay functions?) and hides only after a mouseclick somewhere (like the Microsoft menu of outlook)?
2: Is there a way to use the smartscrolling function (for a vertical menu) on the MAIN menu instead of only for the submenu's?
A: 1) Unfortunately, you can't do it.
You can use Deluxe Tree,

2) Yes, you can't use scrolling in the main menu. But if you have verylarge menu you can use multilevel menu,

Theoretically we can do scrolling in the main menu, but we think that it will be better touse multilevel menu in that case.
Q: I am rewriting my homepage in CSS but now I have another problem with the DeLuxe menu.
The javascript top menu is well positioned on the page but the submenus are not.
The submenus are not positioned aside the javascript top menu but lower and far to much to the right.
I changed the variables
var posX = 100;
var posY = 100;
var absolutePos = 1;
var topDX = 0;
var topDY = 0;
var DX = -3;
var DY = 0;
var subMenuAlign = "left";
var subMenuVAlign = "top";
Sometimes when I change the variables the submenus are well positioned and then, after enlarging the IE-window, they are not.
What can I do?
A: It is possible that you have some problems with your css styles.
See, the problem is that the javascript top menu can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "POSITION: absolute" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style (style="POSITION:absolute;"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
You should add style="POSITION: absolute;"
to the
<div id="block">
Q: I recently decided to begin using the modal popup window and needthe calling browser window to reload when the deluxe-popup closes.
A: You can add an event when you close your popup window in the following way:
document.getElementById('ID').onclose = function(){ call(parameter1, parameter2); };
where ID is the ID of your window.
Add this code after you call your data file or deluxePopupWindow.open function.
Q: I can't find anywhere in your documentation that states where I can call this function onclick other than in the menu web page target.
A: You can use onclick event in the following way:
var menuitems = [
["<div onClick='getLink(\'/Admin/Sales/Customers/Customers.asp\')'>Table of Contents</div>", ""]
];
