Q: When i stay on one page so must have the menue-point of the html menu for this page another color or font. How can i make this?
A: You should set pressed item.
Please, check the following parameter
var pressedItem=-2;
This parameter sets an index of an item that will be highlighted by default.
-2 - the toggle mode is disabled;
-1 - the toggle mode is enabled, but no items highlighted by default;
0,1,2,3,... - index of highlighted item in a top-menu.
You can set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.
You can also set the correct
var pressedItem=1;
parameter on each html page.
Q: I want to have one of the drop menus use a different image.
I am using thevista images and would like to have all of them but one use the same imageand the last one a different one. Can this be done?
If not I was able to adda second menu with the different image but for some reason the second menuwill not drop down. Can you help me with either of these?

Q: .How customizable is it style in for dhtml navigation, meaning, i have images i want used for the top level navigation, and background images for the rest. any way I can achieve this?
A: Actually you can create any menu with Deluxe Menu. You can use Individual Styles tocreate your menu.
For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemHeight=21px","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=normal 11px Tahoma",
"fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBackImage=data-vista-03.files/btn_magentablack.gif,data-vista-03.files/btn_magenta.gif"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBackImage=back.gif","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=0px 5px 0px 5px"],
];
Q: We have purchased 'Deluxe Menu...'.
We are integrating the menu into the site. However, we are facing an issue i.e. drop down menu with css overlapping the 'Select' box in the IE 6.0.
I went through the help pages in the deluxe menu website and tried out the Suggestion of assigning 1 to dmObjectsCheck i.e. var dmObjectsCheck=1 and adding the function as below.
function dm_ext_ruleObjectHide()
{
return !document.all;
}
It is throwing some error when we do that. Could you please suggest, what should we to get rid of overlapping. Please see the attached screen for the error. The error captured using Firefox.
A: Check that you're using Deluxe Menu v3.2.5.
Check also that you have dmenu_add.js file in the same folder withdmenu.js file.
Or you can try to set also the following parameter:
var useIFRAME=1;
