Q: I have noticed an issue with the menu. Dhtml pop up menu does not drop down over the frame if a pdf is being displayed. It does something weird to the browser like shortens the main frame and displays above the menu.
A: Notice that you should add your pdf inside IFRAME tag.
Try to set the following parameter to overlap .pdf files:
var useIFRAME=1;
Q: "Tools/Use utf8 encode" from my Deluxe Tuner is turned on (with check in it). You mean I will have to uncheck it?
No problem with my pages... it is only with the java swing drop down menu because there are words that doesn't show the correct letters / characters I am encoding both in French and Spanish pages. My boss said, it looks like a virus..(lol..)
A: You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode. So, youshould set UTF-8 encode on your page too
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"charset="UTF-8">
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manuallychange your letters in any text editor.
You can also replace your letters with special sets, for example
É - Capital E, acute accent
var menuItems = [
["É....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

Q: I am having a difficult time trying to integrate your menu into a frame system of my clients. The url that I am testing at is...
I believe that I have followed your instructions to the letter, but can't seem to get the cross-frame system to work. Any help would be appreciated.
A: Please, check dmWorkPath parameter. You should write in the followingway:
<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> var dmWorkPath = "nav_011907_files/";</SCRIPT>
See also how you should write your dm_init function
dm_initFrame("frmSet", 1, 2, 1);
Please, notice also that Deluxe Menu can work within 1 frameset only.
It can't work correctly within nested framesets. It is possible that you'll havesome errors.
Q: Am I under the correct assumption that if the inner menu item text expands past the ItemWidth or MenuWidth (being that the Width is set -- eg 150px), that the javascript menu div width will expand past it's boundaries instead of wrapping the text? (eg. A text like "Please Make this Wrap instead of expand the width boundary" seems to expand the container's width rather than wrap)
A: There are 2 ways to do that:
1. set
var noWrap=0;
2. use <br> tags, for example:
var menuItems = [
["line 1<br>line 2"],
];
