Q: I'm a having an issue with my dhtml dropdown menus poping-up behind a flash object on a page. The key to this issue is that the menus work perfectly in our non-secure (HTTP) development environment, but do not work correctly on our secure (HTTPS) beta environment. The code on the 2 environments is exactly the same, and the beta environment does work when viewed in HTTP. Both the flash object and the Deluxe-Menu are called using relative paths, not absolute paths.
Please let me know what additional information you need from me. I appreciate any help you can provide.
A: Check that you're using latest version of engine files - v3.3.
You should add "opaque" parameter for <object> and <embed> tags.
See, how you should install flash on your pages.

Q: In DeluxeTuner when I choose an image and use my own path DeluxeTuner always sticks it's own path (data.files/) into the .js file.
Then I have to go into the data.js file and re-edit the path manually.
A: If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: Can the Deluxe Menus be set to open by click and stay open when clicked for some time?
A: You can open Deluxe Menu on click. Set this parameter:
var showByClick = 0;          Show submenus on a mouse click only.
0 - disabled (default),   1 - enabled.
You can use such parameter in you menu:
var transDuration = 300;         - Delay of a transitional effect (in ms) on submenu's showing.
Q: Is it possible to integrate a search window for my customers like your "standart tree menu" , and what is the code for this function ?
A: To add input area and a button you should write your menu item in thefollowing way:
["|Search <input type=text style='width:80px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>
<input type=button value='Go' style='width:30px;height:17px;font:normal 10px Tahoma,Arial;'>", "", "", "", "", "", "", "0"],
