Q: My mainmenu items are not links. So i need no link cursor. My submenu item are links, so i need a pointer(hand).
How can i define 2 different cursors. I tried all the possible settings for the cursor in the program but noting works.
I tried is also with a CSS class for the submenu, but that wasn't also working.
In brief: i want an arrow cursur in my mainmenu, and an hand cursor in my submenu. With smart scroll doesn't solve my problem.
Can you give me a hint to do this.


A: Unfortunately, you can't change cursor type for different items.
But you can write so:

["<a href='http://deluxe-menu.com/'>Home</a>","", , , , , , , , ],
["Product Info","", , , , , "0", , , ],
 ["|What's New","", , , , , "0", , , ],

In all items with links you should use <a> tag.

Set this parameter:
  var itemCursor="default";


Q: We create the menu code via ASP, and we need to have 2 menus on one page. Normally you do this by having 2 java scripts includes.

However it looks like the bottom menu activates the first menu?


A: Now you have two entries of dmenu.js file on your site in the tag.
You must have only one entry of dmenu.js file.
You should write so:

...
<head>

<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menu2.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu2.files/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, by Deluxe-Menu.com -->

</head>

Please, delete the same code from the tag.



Q: I downloaded "DeLuxe Menu" and try to make a menu dynamic. I was having the impression, that every item could have it's own color. But nowhere in de program could I find how this had to be done. Every time I changed the color, weather it was under Appearance or Item Appearance, the color of the whole menu was changed.
Before I decide to buy your product, I need to know if separate coloring for the menu dynamic is possible.

A: You can create Individual Item style and assign it for the top items,for example:

  var itemStyles = [

["itemBackColor=#8080FF,#FFFF80","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid", "itemBorderColor=#000080,#FF8000","showByClick=0"],//style0
["itemBackColor=##FFFFF,#000000","itemBorderWidth=1","itemBorderStyle=solid,solid", "itemBorderColor=##AA0000,#0000EE","showByClick=0"],//style1
];

  var menuItems = [

["Item 1","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style0
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", "", "", ], //style1
 ["|Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 4","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 5","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", "", "", ], //style0
 ["|Item 7","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
 ["|Item 8","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 6","", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", "", "", ], //style1
];


Q: We are testing your css drop down menu and everything is fine, except for the slow load in IE7.
After the page is loaded, the first time we open each item it takes a lot of time to appear.

Do you have any solution for this problem?

A: Check that you've set the following parameter:

  var dm_writeAll=0;

You can also try to turn off transitional effects:
  var transition=-1;

And adjust the following parameters:
  var smShowPause=100;
  var smHidePause=500;
