Q: May I use this menu in Arabic mode I mean in right to left mode?
If yes please let me know how?
A: 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.
Please, see example:
http://deluxe-menu.com/ways-showing-submenus-sample.html

var smViewType = 0..3;
Values:
0 - from left to right;
1 - from left to right + upwards;
2 - from right to left;
3 - from right to left + upwards;

Q: I am now ready to re-create my menu. It says to edit my data file. When I try to do that it will NOT open. It says my computer does not have the right program? What do I need?
Also, once I have created the menu in Deluxe tuner, where should I save it? In the folder where my website pages are saved? Again, I am using Yahoo sitebuilder, so I am not exactly sure where I should save it in these folders?
Furthermore, when I tried to save a file before I removed Deluxe tuner and reloaded it, It would ask me if I wanted to copy all my files? What is that and what is the purpose?
I really like the deluxe tuner and I really want to be able to utilize this to create a menu, however, if I can't figure out how to get it onto my website, I am going to be out of luck

You should open your data file with the menu in any text editor andadd your reg. key.
Try that.

You can save your data file in any place and then copy to the rightplace.> Furthermore, when I tried to save a file before I removed Deluxe tuner and

If you click yes, Deluxe Tuner save also all engine .js files and allyour images into "data.files/" folder.
You can also click Export->To HTML.
So you'll have html page with your menu and folder with engine .jsfiles and images.
So you should to do the following things:
1. open your page in Yahoo's SiteBuilder
2. open generated with Deluxe Tuner html source code of the page in anytext editor
3. copy such lines from html source code
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "data.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/dmenu.js"></script>
and add them in you <head> tag.
Then find such line, for example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script>
and add it in you <body> tag in the place where you want to have themenu. For example, you can paste it in <table> or <div> tag:
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script></td></tr>
</table>
or
<div align=center>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.files/data.js"></script>
</div>

You should also copy "data.files/" folder in the right place. In thefolder where you have you index.html page, created in Yahoo'sSiteBuilder.
