Q: I am in the process of evaluating the deluxe-menu product V3.2.7.16 and have created a simple HTML using the deluxe-menu Vista Style #6. This works great and displays with the animation in IE and also using FireFox V2 with IE tabs.. However, in basic FireFox and Safari, the javascript menus display but without the swirling animation. Pls advise !!
A: Filters and transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer5.5+ only.

Q: Is there any way through script to call the function that would be called if the user clicked a dhtml tabbed menu?
A: You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover/onClick event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects within items, for example:
var bmenuitems = [
["<div onClick='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
Q: We currently check the functionalitys of deluxe-menu for a new project.
Currently we need a popup menu that shows some menu entrys with submenus.
If the user select the submenu in the dhtml horizontal menu, we want to show a div container witha google map in the menu!
Is this possible with deluxe-menu?

Q: How can I vary the width of the individual items (Home, Product Info etc) on the main menu bar?
A: I'm not sure I understand you. You want to use different width (exactwidth) for the main items?
You can use Individual Styles to set the width for the menu items.Please, use Deluxe Tuner to create your individual styles.
You should write for example so:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=98px"], // style 0
["itemWidth=100px"], // style 1
["itemWidth=110px"], // style 2
["itemWidth=120px"], // style 3
["itemWidth=95px"], // style 4
];
var menuItems = [
