Q: Is there any way to change the font size of the secondary and tertiary links but yet have a different font size for the primary links?


A: You can use different font style for each link on each level.
You should use Individual Item Styles.
Please, use Dhtml Tuner application to create individual styles.

For example:

// --- DHTML Tuner style names ---
  var tstylesNames=["Individual Style 1","Individual Style 2","Individual Style 3","Individual Style 4","New Individual Style",];
  var tXPStylesNames=["Individual Style 1",];

  var tstyles = [
["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#FFFFFF,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 0 ["tfontStyle=bold 8pt Tahoma","titemBackColor=#265BCC,#265BCC","tfontColor=#215DC6,#428EFF","tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 1 ["tfontDecoration=none,none"],
//style 2
["tfontStyle=normal 8pt Tahoma","tfontColor=#013D6D,#5555FF"],
//style 3
["tfontStyle=bold 11px Bookman Old Style","tfontColor=#000000,#000000","tfontDecoration=none,underline"],
//style 4
];

  var tmenuItems = [

Q: I now have a tree on the left and an embedded frame on the right. When a user clicks a node, the corresponding html page appears in the frame.

Is there a method I can use when a user clicks a node, the web page will jump to a certain location in the page (menu dhtml hhyperlink)? I'm envisioning using one long web page instead of 30 or 40 separate pages. But I would need the program to work with a hyperlink to know where to jump to.

A: See the structure of tmenuItems array:

  var tmenuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, iconExpanded, tip, target, itemStyleInd, itemXPStyleInd, jsFilename],

You can set link and target menu dhtml parameters for each item individually,for example:

  var tmenuItems = [
["Home","files/homepage.html","","","","Home","topframe","","",""],
["Contacts","files/contacts.html","","","","Contacts","bottomframe","","",""],

You can also send us the example, so we can understand your problem.
