Q: How can I use Danish characters in my dhtml menu bars?
A: You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.
In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode. So, you
should set UTF-8 encode on your page too
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"charset="UTF-8">
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off
"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manually
change your letters in any text editor.
Q: For how long our purchase does entitle us to getting the upgrades for the dhtml menu software?
A: All minor upgrades you'll get for free (for example, 2.4->2.7).
All major upgrades you'll get for free during 1 year (for example, 2.4->3.0).
For example, if there's some major upgrades (1.7 -> 2.0 -> 4.0)
you'll get them for free during one year.
But if there'll be no major upgrades during some period (2.72 -> 2.81 -> 2.92). And after 3 year, for example, there will be major upgrade to 3.0. So you can upgrade for free.
We can offer you a big discount for the major upgrade after one year.
Q: Can I add the value of the parameter to the link where I want my application to go when I active a submenu in the menu script?
A: Actually you can add php code inside menu links.
If you define your parameter in .js file you should write yourlinks in the following way, for example:
<?
....
$key = 123456;
....
?>
["Home","www.domain.com/home.php?key=<? echo $key ?>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
If you define your key parameter in the php file you should move your
menuItems into your php page directly:
<?
....
$key = 123456;
....
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var tmenuItems = [
['Deluxe Menu','http://deluxe-menu.com','icon.gif',,,,,],
['Deluxe Tree','http://deluxe-tree.com','icon.gif',,'New!',,,],
['Deluxe Tabs','http://deluxe-tabs.com','icon.gif',,'New!',,,],
["Home","www.domain.com/home.php?key=<? echo $key ?>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
dm_init();
</script>
Q: What can I tell people who aren't seeing their drop-down menu? For example, I have a client who can't see his on his machine, while I can on see the menu on one of my machines but not the other.

A: When your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript onpages you load you can't see a dynamic page content. So, you cannotsee your javascript menu at all.
There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.
You can use search engine friendly code, so you'll see all yourlinks (for the main items and submenus) when your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript.
You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="http://deluxe-tree.com">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
