Tune menu parameters manually or using Deluxe Tuner. Then add several rows of a code within html page - your menu is ready!

Opportunity to control the menu from the keyboard.
Cross-frame mode allows you to build full-featured menus on the pages that use frame-based structure. But for all that it's not necessary to insert any additional code into all the pages - just specify some additional parameters of the menu.
Q: I want to buy your product today, but have a few questions:
How do I change the font style for java menu templates to 9pt Verdana bold, but leave the sub-menus 9pt Verdana normal? I understand there’s a "fontStyle" variable, but is there an "itemfontStyle"? How do I make the left hand padding greater for the menu? I’m using the XP Style 1 and the far left top menu item is running up against my left hand border. I want to add about 10px of spacing to the left of the menu. How do I make the options in a menu have equal spacing? For instance, if there are 5 items in the menu, how can each have 100% / 5?
A: You can use Individual Item styles to set specific parameters for eachitem or submenu.
1. var fontStyle=["normal 9pt Verdana","normal 9pt Verdana"]; //for subitems //style for the top items var itemStyles = [ ["itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"], ];
2., 4. You should specify itemPadding parameter in "px". You shouldadd "px" in your style for subitems: var menuStyles = [ ["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"], ];
Notice also that you can set multiple value for itemPadding parameter,for example:
itemPadding=4px 10px 4px 10px top right bottom left 4. You should set the exact width for the java menu templates: var menuWidth="500px"; and set width for the top items using Individual styles: ["itemWidth=100px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
Unfortunately it is not possible to specify item's width in '%' inIndividual styles. The following width parameters won't work.
var menuWidth="100%"; ["itemWidth=20%","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
Q: Thank you for your prompt replay- the menu now works! However, the multi level dhtml menu takes forever to load up as demonstrated on our website. I was wondering whether there was any possible way of getting it to load up faster.
A: I have noticed no delays in the menu loading.
But your menu is big enough. You can try to us AJAX technology.
Q: How can I upgrade to Deluxe Menu v2.0? Now I'm using v1.14.
A: How to upgrade to v2.00 --------------------------------------------------------------- You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message. Deluxe Menu v2.00 has new parameters and features. To upgrade to v2.00 you should do the following.
Step 1.     1.1 For Windows users       a. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.0       (can be found in the trial menu package v2.0       http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu.zip).       b. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed): select File/Open…       c. Save the file: select File/Save, then click "No" button when the dialog box appears.
    1.2 For other OS users       a. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed) in a text editor.       b. Make sure that the following variables exist in the data file:
      var keystrokes = 0;       var dm_focus = 1;       var dm_actKey = 113;
      var dynamic = 0;       var smHideOnClick = 1;       var itemAlignTop = 'left';       var smSmartScroll = 1;
      var dmAJAX = 0;       var dmAJAXCount = 30;       var dmRTL = 0;       var dmObjectsCheck = 0;       var menuBackRepeat = "repeat";       var menuHeight = "";       var transDuration2 = 200;
If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.
      c. Save the file.
Step 2. Now open HTML-page that contains Deluxe Menu.
Step 3. Replace existent tags of the menu by the following code:
Step 4. Save HTML-page.
Step 5. New engine v2.00 has 7 .js files. They are:       - dmenu.js       - dmenu4.js       - dmenu_add.js       - dmenu_dyn.js       - dmenu_key.js       - dmenu_cf.js (new v2.00)       - dmenu_popup.js (new v2.00)
Replace all old .js files by the files from v2.00.
Try that.
Q: Is there any way to keep the cursor as default on disabled links? I see that there's a general cursor choice, is there any chance to make it individually?
A: Unfortunately you cannot set cursor type individually for all items. You can set it only for whole items.
You can try to set a cursor for your <img> tag. for example: ["<img src='deluxe-menu.files/sep_mac.gif' style='cursor: default;'>","", "", "", "", "_", "-1", "0", "", ],
You can also try to set var itemCursor="default"; for all items and use <a> tags for all links:
["<a href='index.html' target='_blank' class='link'>Home</a>","", "", "", "", "Return to Index page", "", "0", "", ],
And create styles .link{ color: #FFFFFF;} .link:hover{ color: #FFBEBE;}
