Q: How do I expand the length of the vista html drop menu tab images to accommodate longer text? If the text is "Special Event Programs", the arrows are outside the tab in another partial one. I am using the Vista style tabs (black_blue / tealblack).
Is there any way other than definition of new image files to get more color combos?
Can I change the text size in the menu tabs? When I use the Tuner, it has no effect.
A: Try to use image-based menu.
Set:
var menuWidth="92px";
var menuHeight="";
and create the following style:
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackImage=WANmenu.files/btn_magenta-back.gif,WANmenu.files/btn_magentablack-back.gif",
"beforeItemImage=WANmenu.files/btn_magenta-left.gif,WANmenu.files/btn_magentablack-left.gif","afterItemImage=WANmenu.files/btn_magenta-right.gif,WANmenu.files/btn_magentablack-right.gif","beforeItemImageW=10","afterItemImageW=10","beforeItemImageH=21","afterItemImageH=21",

Q: I am using the deluxe tree menu but i am facing problem while using ajax
so can you please guide me how can i use the ajax functionality for the dhtml tree..
A: To enable AJAX Tree Menu use the following menu parameters:
var tajax=1; // enables AJAX technology support
Each .js file must contain menuItems variable for the submenu in the following format:
var tmenuItems = [
[text, link, icon1, icon2, icon2, tip, target, itemStyle, submenuStyle, jsFileName],
];
Where jsFileName - .js filename on the server that contains tmenuItems variable for the submenu.

Q: I like your product a lot. These are the features that, unfortunately, cannot be done and hope that you can address them. I will place the order right away if these are resolved:
1. For each individual item, allow attaching a customized javascript to fire up "onclick" and "nomouseover".
2. Allow using a variable size icon for each item.
A: 1. You're able to use Javascript for each item, for example:
var tmenuitems = [
["item text", "javascript:your_code_here"]
];
Unfortunately, you can't assign onmouseover event to each item.
However, you can achieve this by using standard html objects withinitems, for example:
var tmenuitems = [
["<div onmouseover='your_code_here'>item text</div>", "index.html"]
];
2. DHTML Tree Menu uses constant icon size for all icons.
If you wantto use different icon dimensions, you can use standard <img>elements within items:
var tmenuitems = [
["<img src='icon.gif' width=10 height=10>item text", "index.html"]
];
