Q: I have a web site in which I am using Deluxe Menu in the top frame as a menu that crosses the frame and a menu in the lower frame that uses it as a menu in the same frame.
However, if a user selects the menu in the upper frame they get the menu that is associated with the menu of the lower frame.
The configuration files are names differently.
Is there a setting that needs to be set for the menu to distinguish between the two menus instantiations?
A: I suppose that you have two entries of dmenu.js file on your site in the tag.
You must have only one entry of dmenu.js file.
Please, delete the same code.
You should write so:
<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menu2.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu2.files/dmenu.js"></script>

Q: Can you explain website drop down menu creation and implement in html files?
A: Unfortunately we don't have step by step tutorial yet.
We'll try to create it in the nearest time.
1. Create your menu in Deluxe Tuner.
When you open Deluxe Tuner you can click "File/New" and add items and subitems
using buttons "Add Item" and "Add Subitem" on the main window.
You should set items and subitems parameters on the "Item Parameters" window.
See also other parameters for the menu on the main window.
More info about menu parameters you can find on our site
http://deluxe-menu.com/parameters-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/menu-items-info.html
You can also use Individual Styles for items and subitems
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-item-styles-info.html
http://deluxe-menu.com/individual-submenu-styles-info.html
2. You should install the menu on your page.
You can click, for example, File/Export to HTML.
So, you'll have folder with all engine files and images
("deluxe-menu.files/" folder by default), deluxe-menu.html file and
data-deluxe-menu.js file with all menu parameters.
Open deluxe-menu.html file in any text editor and copy several rows of
code into your page (for example index.html page of your website).
Copy and paste several rows into your html page (index.html).

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>

</head>
<body>
...
<table>
<tr><td><script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/data-deluxe-menu.js"></script></td></tr> //data-deluxe-menu.js - data file createdin Deluxe Tuner.
</table>
...
</body>
You should also copy "deluxe-menu.files/" folder with all engine files
dmenu.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
and data-deluxe-menu.js file into the same folder with your index.html page.
Try that.

Q: I have a Menu called topnavbar.js when this menu is applied to a page not in a subfolder the links work. This topnavbar menu includes the following items; District Office, Cumberland Head Elementary School, Beekmantown Elementary School, Beekmantown Middle School, and Beekmantown High School.
However, if you put the topnavbar on a page that is located in a subfolder the links in the topnavbar add this subfolder name to the link. So instead of districtoffice.htm the link is transportation/districtoffice.htm and that page doesn’t exist.
A: You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute.
For example:
var pathPrefix_img = "http://domain.com/images/";
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";
var menuItems = [
["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],
];
So, link path will be look so:
http://domain.com/pages/index.html
Images paths will be look so:
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif
Please, try to use these parameters.
Q: So, as you can see, I use "_self" in order to make the URL open in same window when left-clicked. If I set it to empty it opens in new window (is that correct behaviour (I thought we should use _blank to get that effect).
A: In the menuItems you can set target parameter for each itemindividually.
The following parameter:
var itemTarget="_blank";
sets target for all items, so if you haven't specified target for theitem
["Arbeidsplaner","cp_workplan.php",,,,"","0","0"],
the target for this item will be "_blank".
