Q: Can search engines follow the items of navigation menu?
A: You should generate search engine friendly code and install it on your page.
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.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
Q: I am trying to update a website using a deluxe-menu, but I do not understand the instructions for inserting it into a framed site. I have everything working, and the menu is on the page. I just cannot figure out how to make the submenus appear in another frame.
The website makes it sound like I need to alter the data.js file, but I do not have any programs on my computer that will allow me to do so.
A: You can open your data.js file in any text editor and add such linedm_initFrame("frmSet", 0, 1, 0); instead of dm_init();

Q: I am having some difficulty dynamically adding items to a dhtml sliding menus.
A: See dtreet_ext_insertItem () function has the following parameters:
function dtreet_ext_insertItem (menuInd, parentItemID, itemInd, itemParams)
Creates a new item and inserts it into a specified position.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
parentItemID - ID property of an item.<, >= 0.
itemInd - index of a new item within the menu, >= 0.
itemParams - item parameters.
Notice that parentItemID is the Id property of the parent item
(notindex). If you want to add top items you should set parentItemID=0.
itemInd - you should use this parameter if you want to add item in the
specific place, for example set itemInd=5 if you want to add item
before the existing item with itemInd=5.
If you set itemInd=null the new item will be added at the end of this submenu and its index will be added automatically.
Q: Where do I increase the width of the javascript menu bars for each entry? Some of my links are a bit longer than the image and it's causing it to use part of another gif to cover it. Sorry not sure if I even explained that right. Let me know if this makes sense.
A: I suppose that you're using Vista style templates.
The width of vista images is 94px. If the width of your menu itemis wider than 94px you should correct the width of the images in anygraph editor, for example in Photoshop. You should set the width ofthese images 120px and set the following parameter:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=bold 10pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#F8FF95","itemBackImage=columbine.files/btn_orange.gif,columbine.files/btn_orange2.gif"],
];
You can also try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items:
var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
var beforeItemImageW = '';
var afterItemImageW = '';
var beforeItemImageH = '';
var afterItemImageH ='';
