Q: We need Asian fonts to be displayed on the menu. Is there any way that we can really make it happen?
The constraint is we have to display the drop down in Cross Frame and Cross Domain environment.
Your inputs will be really appreciated.
A: You can use any font in your menu.
You should install the font on your computer.
You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.
The only issue is that submenus can be shown in incorrect positionwhen you're using dir=rtl for your page.
var dmRTL = 0;
Set this parameter to 1 if you're using right-to-left direction of html page <HTML dir=rtl>.Use also var smViewType = 2;for right-to-left languages.
Q: Can I use data from a SQL server using ASP for drop down menu code?
A: You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc.
However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files,
so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>
<!-- (c) 2006, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
// and describe parameters of a menu
var parameter1=value1;
var parameter2=value2;
etc.
var menuItems = [
// here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.)
];
Unfortunately we don't have examples with ASP and SQL.
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Q: Just wondering if it's possible to have the sub menu of my collapsible dhtml menu that appear when the "+" is clicked stay open when another page loads. I tried downloading the trial version & can't get that to happen.
Click on "web development" and then "web design portfolio" - when the new page loads the menu closes. Is it possible to have it remember which sub menus were showing when the new page loads?
A: Deluxe Tree has save state feature. You should set the followingparameter:
var tsaveState=1;
Q: I have tested your Deluxe Menu Builder and found it easy to work with.
One problem I have is that java menu freeware doesn’t support Swedish letters. When I preview the menu in a browser instead of those specific Swedish letters there are squares.
Could you please inform what I can do? Are there some setting I can change to use Swedish letters?
I am looking forward to hearing from you soonest possible.
A: You're able to use any characters for Deluxe Menu in the same way asyou use them for standard html page.
Unfortunately, you can't use Swedish letters in Deluxe Tuner application.You should manually correct your data file with the menu parameters.
