Q: My site requires me to regularly update the menu by inserting a new menu item at the top of the list. Creating a sub-item automatically places it at the bottom and I haven't yet found a way to move java animated menu items to the top apart from manually editing the data.js file.
A: You should use new engine files v3.2.5 and add items using thefollowing function:
function dm_ext_addItemPos (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams, Pos)
Adds the new item to a submenu.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0. See more info about indexes here.
iParams = [array] - the array of item parameters. This parameter has the same structure as an item in menuItems array. You can assign parameters of another existent item of the menu (for example, when you want to create a duplicate of the existent item) or create new ones.
Structure of iParams:
[item_text, link, icon_normal, icon_over, tip, target, individual_style_index, jsFilename]
Pos - the position in the menu where you want to add new item.

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: We are interested in using your dropdown menu code for our site but we do have a question.
When the dropdown menu code viewed in IE7 everything is fine but when I view it in opera or firefox browsers the menu bar is off the screen. Have I missed something in the script to position this in the center whin the table it belongs in?
<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
summary="Quaker Meadows Menu">
<tr>
<td>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>
</td>
</tr>
</table> is off the screen. Have I missed something in the script to position this in the center whin the table it belongs in?
<table border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
A: Try to set exact width for the dropdown menu code in "px". It helps to position themenu correctly in all browsers.
