Q: Now I experiences a problem with the Danish letters in the dhtml drop down menu generator! I have changed the letters in the scriptfile - but this does not work.
Have we a problem with Danish letters?
A: Notice that you should have UTF8 charset on your page too:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html" charset="UTF-8">
You can also use another charset on your html page and open your data file in text editor, enter thissymbols and save data file in the way you save your html page.
Notice that you should turn off "Tools/Use utf8 encode" setting inorder to open your data file correctly in Deluxe Tuner.
Q: Navigation bar code should indicate with on which page I me just considers..
(with anothercolour of the font of the active Link from the navigation, or an underline, bolder font, ...).
A: Deluxe Menu has only two states normal and mouseover,
but you can highlight menu items in two ways:
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,
for example:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<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.

Q: Two more questions, while waiting for this answer:
1) calendarDatePicker.handlers( ['dtEvent', 'dtEvent', {type : 'datetime', format:'%L %d, %Y, %l:%M %p', locale:'en'}] ); is ignoring the date format.
2) If I have a button that in an onclick I want to popup calendar, how would I do that?
3) I am getting 'incorrect copyright', suggestions?
Thank you, I have people waiting for me to bring this site live - your fast help is appreciated
A: >I am getting 'incorrect copyright', suggestions?
You should write NOSCRIPT tag in the following way:
<noscript><a href="http://calendardatepicker.com">Javascript Calendar Date Picker by calendardatepicker.com</a></noscript>
> 1) calendarDatePicker.handlers( ['dtEvent', 'dtEvent', {type : 'datetime',

You should install the calendar in the following way:
<form>
<script>
window.onload = function(){
calendarDatePicker.handlers(['cal', 'txt', {type : 'datetime', IiI:'%L %d, %Y, %l:%M %p', locale:'en'}]);
};
</script>
<input type="button" value="Click to open calendar" id="cal" name="cal" onClick="">
<input type="text" id="txt" value="">
<div id="test-box" style="width:40px;height:40px;position:absolute;left:200px;top:10px;"></div>
</form>Q: Can you tell me what fields control the lines around the top level of menu items?
What fields control the lines around each sub-menu item?
I would like to test and see if the program will allow me to create a top menu that displays as follows:
Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
As you can see I would like no borders around the top level and a tilda (vertical line) separator between each top level menu item.
For the sub-menu items I would like there to be a thin line box around the sub-menu but no lines in between each item within the sub-menu. What fields control these paramenters?
A: Home | Proposal Reponses | Marketing Info |
Yes, you can create such menu.
Please, use Individual styles.
Set these parameters:
var menuBorderWidth=1;
var menuStyles = [
["menuBorderWidth=0"], //style 0
];
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , , "0", , ], //style 0
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , , , , ],
To add lines between main items you can paste the separators.
Please, see the following parameters:
//------- Separators -------
var separatorWidth = "10";
var separatorHeight = "20";
var separatorAlignment = "center";
var separatorImage = "C";
var separatorVWidth = "150";
var separatorVHeight = "10%";
var separatorVImage = "image.jpg";
You can create separators using menuItems, for example:
var menuItems = [
["item 1"],
["-"], // this item is separator
["item 2"],
];
