Q: We need Asian fonts to be displayed on the menu. Is there any way that we can really make it happen?
The constraint is we have to display the drop down in Cross Frame and Cross Domain environment.
Your inputs will be really appreciated.
A: You can use any font in your menu.
You should install the font on your computer.
You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.
The only issue is that submenus can be shown in incorrect positionwhen you're using dir=rtl for your page.
var dmRTL = 0;
Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>.Use also var smViewType = 2;for right-to-left languages.
Q: Can you please give me tips on how I can style all menuitems to have font bold when selected and normal font when not selected?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Tree doesn't have such a feature. You can onlyset it's color. You cannot set the font of menu item bold when selected.
You can set menu item's font bold onMouseover, see example here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-templates/vista-style-7-template-sample.html
You should addthe following code in your data file:
function changeFont(obj, over)
{
obj.style.fontWeight = over ? 'bold' : 'normal';
obj.style.fontSize = over ? '13px' : '12px'; // You can not use this line
}
var tmenuItems = [

Please, notice also that you should add this function every time whenyou change your menu in Deluxe Tuner application, as Tuner deletesthis function.
Q: We have a problem. If the "sub menus" open downward (in a horizontal menu) and there is Flash under it, the menu disappears. It goes BEHIND the flash and can't be seen.
Is there a fix for this?
I honestly don't recall it happening before but it now does. I probably didn't pay attention. Thank you!
A: Please, check that you've set the following parameter:
var dmObjectsCheck=1;
Please, use dmenu_add.js file.For more info, please, see:http://deluxe-menu.com/objects-overlapping-sample.html
Q: I worked up some menus on my local machine and they work fine I want to push them to my server.
When I do, I don't see the menu that I saw on my local machine.
Instead, I see a hypertext link with a word that I used in one menu. What could be wrong?
Do I have to chmod the JS file? Do I have it mapped wrong. Is it because I am using a demo version?
A: Demo version of the menu has full functionality.
I can't find the call of dmenu.js file on deluxe-menu.htm and dmenu.js file in the "deluxe-menu_files" folder.
Please, upload this file on your server.
More info about the installation of the menu you can find here:
