Q: I am evaluating your Deluxe Tuner / Tab program and was wondering how to add content below the tabs, like you have on your site.
You have the tabs, then a content area below each tab. How is this done with your product.
A: You should use ID attribute of object to show in the second parameterof bmenuItems. You set it in the "Item Parameters" window ("Link"parameter).
You should also set:
var tabMode = 0;
So, you'll have, for example, the following bmenuItems:
["tab text","div1", ...],
["tab text","div2", ...], Here "div1" and "div2" is IDs of objects within your html page, for example:
<div id="div1">text 1</div>
<div id="div2">text 2</div>
You can also see examples, which you can find in the trial package.
Q: How I can write the changed dhtml pull down menu into a database?
A: Unfortunately, we don't have such example.
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 Tree -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">Javascript Tree Menu by Deluxe-Tree.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dtree.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-tree.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var tmenuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

This example is not for Deluxe Tree menu, but you can create your menu in the same way.
Q: My question is, the down arrows only show on the main page, how do I fix this.
A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:
c:/website/data.js
and your images are stored here:
c:/website/images/
you should set image name so (for example):
var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];
If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: I’m interested in adding cascading navigation bar to a website that was written in Microsoft Frontpage.
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage/Yahoo SiteBuilder extension,
BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the menuinto your html page:
1. open the page in your program
2. open html source code of the page
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags).
