Q: I cannot get the separator image to display in my dhtml right click menu. Is there a setting I am missing? I want to separate the main menu items with an image.
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical dhtml right click menu)
var separatorWidth="100%";
var separatorHeight="3px";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical menu)
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="2px";
var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems (you can do it in DeluxeTuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:
var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];
Q: Hello, I’ve set my menus up so that they are positioned on my page within a container div (not using the positioning built into the menu script).
I am also trying to use the autoscroll feature as some of the submenus are quite long. The autoscroll doesn’t seem to work with the css positioning though.
I also tried to size the submenus to force them small and thus to scroll with no luck.
The scrolling works fine when I pull the menus out of the container div and just place them in the flow of the page.
Am I doing something wrong or are these two features incompatible with each other.
A: Unfortunately, it is really so. Submenu scrolling doesn't work with css. We'll try to fix it in the future versions.
You can try to use multicolomn submenus.

Q: Where can I change the state of Vista1 buttons?
A: If you want to have 1 state button, please, go to "Edit IndividualStyle"/Item Styles. Click on the style "Top Item" and in bothitemBackImage fields you should write btn_black.gif.
So in your data file you will have such code:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=92px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent", "fontStyle=normal 11px Tahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF", "itemBackImage=btn_black.gif,btn_black.gif"],
];
Q: We are looking at JavaScript libraries for our website, and we liked what we saw with your product deluxe-tabs. However, we have a need for both horizontal and vertical tabs, as well as nesting tabs. We would like the vertical (and nested tabs) to have the same capabilities and features as the horizontal tabs. We notive the vertical tab image example, but that was all we could find. Are there more extensive examples that show the same functionality as the horizontal tabs? Is the product, as is, capable of the same functionality for both vertical and horizontal tabs?
A: See, to create vertical tabs you should add '$' symbol before the itemtext in the first item of the next row.
You can use templates, add '$' symbol and adjust some parameters.
