Q: Hello, you write, that your menu is search engine friendly.
But viewing the source of your samples, I don't see anything search engine friendly in there.
A Javascript is called, that's all, which I doublt could ever be Search Engine friendy?
The only thing I have seen as search engine friendly is the menu you have added at your own homepage.
Can this be set at your menue automatically?
Can you let me know, if the menu supports this kind. Your Features and Functions don't say anything about that either.
A: Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com"&glt;menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
Q: How does an item on the dhtml navigation menus connect to pages?
Does it take the page's name automatically?
If I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?
If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?
A: > how does an item on the menu connect to pages?
You should create menu items in the Deluxe Tuner and specify link and target for each item, for example:
var menuItems = [
["Upcoming Trainings","http://domain.org/pub/upcoming-trainings", "", "", "", "_self", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Conferences & Workshops","upcoming-workshops.html", "", "", "", "_blank", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Continuing Ed","ceu.html", "", "", "", "main", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
> does it take the page's name automatically?
> if I add a page, will the menu item show the new page?
> If I remove a page, will the menu remove the item?
No, you should do it manually in Deluxe Tuner (or any text editor).
Q: Microsoft Explorer has settings that block JAVA scripts (and therefore our JAVA menu).
However, I notice that some JAVA menus on other web sites are not blocked by Microsoft Explorer.
Is there any way to make the java cascading menu not be blocked by Microsoft Explorer ?

A: There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
But you can try to use a workaround:http://www.adobe.com/devnet/activecontent/articles/devletter.htmlTry to use AC_RunActiveContent.js file to run active content.
Q: I have created a menu for a product tutorial. It consists of about 50 topics, each of which is listed in my menu. I’m wondering if there is a way to gray out the menu link for the open tutorial topic?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Menu doesn't have such a feature.
You should write your own code, for example, on PHP.
You can try to use the following function
function disable() {
dm_ext_changeItem(1, 1, 1, ["", "", "", "", "", "_"]);
}
to disable your items.
The example you can find on our site
