the app cutswords. Is there any way to configure it, so that doesn't happens
and puts that word in the lower line?
A: Try to use the following parameter:
var noWrap=0;

["Product <br> Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif","deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],

You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: If you look at our site in IE (PC) the deluxemenu looks great justified left w/ our logo justified right. When you look at it in Safari (Mac) the dhtml menu dropdown is stretched across the entire width of the page and our logo is no longer in view (yuk!).
A: Try to set exact width for the menu in 'px':
var menuWidth="300px";
Q: I am just in the process of evaluating your deluxe menus product for possible purchase.
I have installed the product and i am using the Deluxe Tuner product to create my menus based on the Vista 3-08 template.
I save the project and it adds the .js files in the correct location ( all under Menu folder in my project), but none of the images for the top level menu are copied (btn_red.gif or btn_red2.gif).
So when i run my website, i see the drop down menus but no header menu images (see attached image).
What image files need copying to which location in my websites main folder?
A: When you save your menu in Deluxe Tuner (use "Save as..." or "Exportto HTML" functions) you'll get a folder with all engine files(dmenu.js, dmenu_add.js ...) and all images.
So, for Vista Style 3-08 template you'll have the following images:
arr_white.gif
arrv_white.gif
blank.gif
btn_red.gif
btn_red2.gif
You should copy folder with all these files on your server.
