Q: How change the color of the link in the dhtml vertical menu if the link is already visited.
A: JavaScript Tree Menu has only two states normal and mouseover,
butyou 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, forexample:
<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"< 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: The submenus are going up instead of down in the sub navigation bar.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="top";
Q: I use your product for one of my clients and so I am familiar with using Deluxe Tuner on the Mac and editing that menu, etc. It is a simple menu though, that doesn't use any images or anything fancy.
I want to purchase the javascript nav menu for another client.
My question is, he loves that tabbed javascript nav menu I originally did, and right now they are in one big image map. I can cut them up, but with your menu software, will I be able I to have the top menu as those tab images, and the sub-menu show on mouseover as just plain text? (Like SigmaFlow's sub-menus.)
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!
A: Yes, of course, I don't see any problem with it.
You can use any images as item background, see for example:

Q: We're interested in the pop up menu (context menu) you offered. Is it possible to generate multiple context menus at the same page?
Is the context menu also 508 compliant, in other words, keyboard accessible?
A: Yes, you can use as many context menus as you want on the same page.
You should call your data files at first
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu1.js"></script>
<img src="deluxe-menu.files/logo_w.gif" onClick="return dm_popup(0, 1000, event);" style="cursor: pointer;"> //1st menu
<img src="deluxe-menu.files/logo_w.gif" onClick="return dm_popup(1, 1000, event);" style="cursor: pointer;"> //2nd menu
You can use keyboard in context menus but you have to click (or hover) the image. And only after your subitems appear you can press "Ctrl+F2" and arrow keys to navigate themenu.
But if you have multiple menus on one page and use keystrokes support you can navigate only the first menu.
