Q: I have problems with the incorrect copyright in IE7 – I have tried to change as described on your FAQ but it doesn¦t seem to work.
A: Scott, now you're using dmenu.js file v1.14 and data.js file of Deluxe Menu v2.0.
Please, replace dmenu.js file with the licensed one v2.0.
Please, place all this files in the folder where your menu iscreated in.
Q: Our company has been using the trial version of Deluxe Menu and was satisfied enough with initial integration efforts to acquire the license version.
We are interested in making our main dhtml rollover menu items a constant width, but the data.js parameters ( var menuWidth="800px"; var menuHeight="30px"; var smWidth=""; var smHeight="";) don't seem to give us that capability. We dynamically remove main menu items based on user roles and when we do the main menu always re-sizes and the remaining main menu item widths no longer match our sub-menu widths. We're able to adjust for this by using the API but that seems to be a lot of unnecessary coding. If we could keep each main menu item a fixed width, our sub-menu widths would not have to change.
Do you have information on how to accomplish fixed main menu item widths, even better would be an example?
A: Actually you can specify the width and of all or individual dhtml rollover menu items or submenus usingIndividual Item/Submenu styles.
