Q: I am having a problem trying to get my scrolling menu javascript to work correctly with frames.
My web page is frame based. There are THREE (3) Rows. The top roe is "header" and the bottom row is "footer". The center row is divided into TWO (2) columns. The left is "contents" and the right is "main". This is a very standard configuration.
I have created a menu called "member-menu" and added it to the "content" html file. I have edited the "member-menu.js" file to add the "dm_initFrame("FrmSet",0,1,0); at the end of the file. Using the instruction provided when the scrolling menu javascript was saved. I then uploaded all of the required file to my server. At this point everything is fine, I go to a password protected page in the "\members" folder and this seems to work also. When I try to go to a "submenu" it wants to expand to the right in the "content" FRAME. I need it to expand into the "main" FRAME on the right.
I know that I am doing something wrong. I have read the instructions a dozen times and can't find the problem.
A: You should write the ID of your frames correctly, for example now youhave:
header - 0
contents - 1 (frame with the menu)
main - 2 (frame with submenus)
bootom - 3
In that case you should write init function in the following way:
dm_initFrame("FrmSet",1,2,1);
where - dm_initFrame("FrmSet",frame with the menu,frame with submenus,1);
Try that.

We want that when user clicks an item, then load other page. This other page also conatains the tree menu. But, we are looking for how we have to do for the previously clicked menu items in java (in the previous page) remains highlighted for inform to user what is his current page/selection.
We know toggleMode feature, but after the second page loads, the clicked item does not remain higlighted.
It is possible to achieve this behavior with your product???
A: You should use API functions in that case
function dtreet_ext_expandItem (itemID, expand)
function dtreet_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, itemID)

Q: I have just downloaded your trial version and am trying to use java menu maker using the windows xpstyle1 template. I can only seem to get the top button showing as grey but can change colors of submenus OK. Am I missing something or is this a restriction of the trial system i.e. how do I get the top button showing the same as submenu buttons
A: Trial version of java menu maker has full functionality of the licensed version.
To change submenu colors you should change the following parameters:
var menuBackColor="#F2F3F2";
var itemBackColor=["#F2F3F2","#535353"];
and Individual Submenu Style:
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=0","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
For the top items you should change Individual Item style:
var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#535353"],
];
