Q: Tree menu doesn't display properly in Firefox or IE7. Could you give me advice on how to correct this problem? The menu creates black 'blinds' horizontally across the page. Since IE7 will be rolling out soon I need to get this corrected sometime in the next couple weeks.
A: Try to specify units in "px".
var tmenuWidth = "280px";

Q: Can I put the icon on the left hand side of the text or does it have to be the right in the tree menu script?
A: You can put the icon as you wish on the left or right side.

To set them use these parameters:
var ticonAlign="right";
var texpandBtnAlign="right";
To set alignment of the top items in XP-style use:
var tXPAlign="right"; Q: I am conisdering purchasing your menu generator product, however I have a question that is very important to me.
How can I add a separator to the dhtml menu examples using the dynamic functions? It seems as though the only way to get a separator into the menu is by defining it before hand, but the website I'm building will require me to reload the menus dinamically, and I'm losing the ability to put separators on it.
If there's a workaround for it, or if there's a chance that you can give me a prototype function that exposes that functionality, that would be acceptable as well.
A: You should add items using the following function:
function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
or
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)

dm_ext_addItem(0, 4, ["|-", "", "", "", "", "", "", ])Q: So, I'm actually developing an application with wordpress, and I would like to intagrate this excellent javascript navigation menu.
