Q: I'm having trouble getting some of my drop down menu scripts opening in the frm2.
If you look under products, then Hard drives, then Rugged Airborne .....this one and Rugged Ground will not open in frm2 but the Contact Us and Get Quote are working fine.
Can you help me get these things to open in a frm2.
A: You should write your menu items correctly.
Now you have
["||Rugged Airborne","../RuggedAirborne.htm","Airborne,"frm2","0", ],
["||Rugged Ground","../RuggedGround.htm","Ground","frm2","0", ],
it is not correct.
You should write:
["||Rugged Airborne","../RuggedAirborne.htm","","","Airborne,"frm2","0", ],
["||Rugged Ground","../RuggedGround.htm","","","Ground","frm2","0", ],
Q: I've spent the last 30 minutes or so looking for samples on how to create a simple pop up window. I downloaded the trial, put in the html, saved the js file, etc etc. But there is no sample so I can't see exactly how to do the html.
Like, in the tuner it says to enter the ID of the link. What is this? where do I put the onClick code? where can I find the onClick code? There is a lot of info missing here.
Please send a simple template so I can see how a popup is done. Not a menu, just a popup.
A: > But there is no sample so I can't see exactly how to do the html.
You should create the pop up window in Deluxe Tuner and export it in the HTML page "File/Export/To HTML".
See more info about installation here:

> where can I find the onClick code?
See you can show the popup window when you hover, click or mouseout on some elements on yourpage. For example you've added an image in your html page. You should specify the ID for it, for example:
<p><img id="open_popup" border="0" src="images/submenu-bg.gif" width="170" height="29"></p>
So, in the Deluxe Tuner you should enter 'open_popup' object ID in the onMouseOver,onClick or onMouseOut fields.
Actually you can assign id to any object on your page manually. You should specify ID's - id="xxxx"for <a>, <div>, <img> ... tags.
If you want to show the popup when your page loads you should leave these fields empty:
onMouseOver:"",
onMouseOut:"",
onClick:"",Q: Can data be loaded dynamically in the free drop down menu? For example, can you load the child of a node once the node is clicked on.
A: You can use AJAX like technology.

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>
<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.)
];
</script>
The example of the menu working with PHP/MYSQL you can find here:

Now I need help on this:
When a specific webpage is loaded in the browser, how is it done, that the tree is expanded to the right state? I do not mean, when you have clicked the javascript animated menu – but when visitors come from external links on the webpage, I want to show the correct javascript animated menu-state opened.
Thank you very much for your help.
A: You should use API functions in that case
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
