Q: Once I have an answer form your reseller as to why the VAT doesn't correspond with my country's rate, I think that there is a very strong possibility that I will be investing in this impressive menu-builder. I do have a couple of questions which don't seem to be answered anywhere:
1: is it possible to configure the menu so that the person browsing the site previously-visited javascript menu links can be identified by say using a different font colour for visited 'pages'?
2: the section of the web page in which the menu is located is called by a SSI for each new page that the browser visits - will the menu rest each time the Included file is called, or will it persist from page to page?

Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
Try to do the following things:
- delete var pressedItem=1; parameter from your data file
- set correct parameter on each page before you call data file, forexample:
<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>
<script type="text/javascript"> var pressedItem=3;</script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/data.js"></script>
You can also 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.
See the attached example. Open deluxe-menu1.html. The first item ishighlighted. Then click to open deluxe-menu2.html file. The second item ishighlighted.

Deluxe Menu is the Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side only and it doesn't depend on the server which you'reusing and it doesn't work on a server side as SSI script.
So when your browser reloads a page with the menu your menu reloads too.
Q: Are there the possibility to have the dhtml menu code into an external file so that nothing of the dhtml menu code will appear on my html code?
A: Menu has data.js (by default) data file with menu parameters, itemsand styles and 9 engine files.
You should only call two .js files on your html page.
