Q: Is it possible via code customization to remove the border only for the top level of popup navigation
and subsequent menu levels with the border?
If yes, would you provide technical assistance with the required code change?
A: You can use Individual Item Style in that case.
You should create Individual Style, for example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBorderStyle=none,none"], // style 0
];
And assign it for top items:
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0
["Product Info","", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1.gif", "deluxe-menu.files/icon1o.gif", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], // assign style 0

Q: I have used your Deluxe-menu on my websit. With the browser Opera I have problems with the dhtml scrolling menu item-color. If I select the menu at the first time, the item color is black. After select a menu item the menu item color is #f0e4cc, this is correct. After re-select the menu the item color is #f0e4cc also. After browser re-start the menu item color is black :-(
A: See it is not correctly to write colors in the following way (without # symbol):
var fontColor=["f0e4cc","f0e4cc"];
You should write:
var fontColor=["#f0e4cc","#f0e4cc"];
Your menu will work correctly in all browsers in that case.Q: Can you please give me tips on how I can style all menuitems to have font bold when selected and normal font when not selected?
A: Unfortunately, Deluxe Tree doesn't have such a feature. You can onlyset it's color. You cannot set the font of menu item bold when selected.
You can set menu item's font bold onMouseover, see example here:
http://deluxe-tree.com/data-templates/vista-style-7-template-sample.html
You should addthe following code in your data file:
function changeFont(obj, over)
{
obj.style.fontWeight = over ? 'bold' : 'normal';
obj.style.fontSize = over ? '13px' : '12px'; // You can not use this line
}
var tmenuItems = [
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Security</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Ease of Access</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Internet Options</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Windows Firewall</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Network and Internet</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Hardware</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Programs</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Appearance</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>User Accounts</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["|<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Personalization</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Sound and Speech</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["<div onMouseOver='changeFont(this, 1)' onMouseOut='changeFont(this, 0)'>Additional Options</div>","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Please, notice also that you should add this function every time whenyou change your menu in Deluxe Tuner application, as Tuner deletesthis function.
Q: Shall I have to call the main egine file of the javascript menu maker - dmenu.js twice if I want to install two menus on the page.
The second script:
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>
Is for the top navigation menu, the datahscounseling is for the side menu. If I delete that line won't my top navigation be gone?
A: No, when you have several menus on the same page you should calldmenu.js file only once and then call several data files.
You should install the menus in the following way:
<head>
...
<noscript><a href=http://deluxe-menu.com/>Javascript Menu Maker by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "datahscounseling.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2007, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
...
</head>
<body>
...
<TD height=25 colSpan=3 class=style1>
<script type="text/javascript" src="datatopnav.js"></script></TD>
...
<td width="180" height="307" rowspan="2" valign="top" bgcolor="ffffff"><div align="left">
<script type="text/javascript" src="datahscounseling.js"></script></DIV>
...
</body>
Both menu will work correctly in that case.
See the example I've sent you. It works fine.
