Q: I want to use your menu to create a javascript menu bars like effect in my application. For that I need only the images in the menu items and sub menu items(no text).
And I also want to enable disable toolbar items dynamically depending on the flow in my web application.
I could not find any help for the javascript API on your site that changes the menu dynamically.

Q: Does this mean that nothing needs to be installed on the server side to make javascript menu?
Here is why I am asking this:
We have a main "corporate" web site, which is going to use the JavaScript Tree Menu. One of the links on the main site will launch a page, which is running on a separate web server (physically separate server, and not a load-balancing scenario). Since all of these pages should look identical to the users, they all have to use the exact same configuration and look&feel in JavaScript Tree Menu. I was wondering if any "configuration" type settings are stored on the server. In other words, would we have to maintain the JavaScript Tree Menu install on two separate servers?
A: There is no need to install anything on your server. You should onlycopy a folder with all engine files (dmenu.js, dmenu_add.js, ...) anddata file on your server. Then you should call these files on yourpages, for example:
<body>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data.js"></script>

Actually you can copy deluxe menu files on the one server only anduse absolute paths.Q: I want a menu javascript dropdown menu which is search engine friendly
A: You can generate search engine friendly code.
JavaScript Tree 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="menu_link1">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="menu_link2">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).
