Q: I have used for your software for Menu creation(Trial version). We integrated it in our appliaction running good on IE 6. It has some whitespaces also. Menu using dhtml is not displayed in IE 7 when integrated in our application. When we call your html directly in IE 7 then it displays.
In Mozilla ,menu is displayed but without transitional Effects.
I am interest buy your software. If we are assured that above issues will be fixed in licensed version.

Q: One other question, how do you get the menu bar to highlight and stay on the page you are viewing rather than highlighting home the whole time.
A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
Q: I am currently using deluxe menu to generate a mouseover dropdown menu for my charity website - although it works fantastic in internet explorer it doesnt seem to work correctly in firefox, the mouseover dropdown menu looks flat and the special fade in effect doesnt work.
Please can you advise on what I am doing wrong.

Q: We have been using you menus for a couple of months now. If I use the pathPrefix_link variable does it prefix dhtml menu's links that already have http or https (such as external sites) and will it interfere with the javascript onclicks for that we have setup?
A: No, path prefix won't be added to links with 'http://...' and 'javascript:...' in the beginning ofthe link field.
