Recent Questions Javascript Tree Menu
Q: How do I make the background in my rollover drop down menu transparent?
A: You should set the following paramter in your data.js file:
var tmenuBackColor="transeparent";
Q: Once I have an answer form your reseller as to why the VAT doesn't correspond with my country's rate, I think that there is a very strong possibility that I will be investing in this impressive menu-builder. I do have a couple of questions which don't seem to be answered anywhere:
1: is it possible to configure the menu so that the person browsing the site previously-visited javascript menu links can be identified by say using a different font colour for visited 'pages'?
2: the section of the web page in which the menu is located is called by a SSI for each new page that the browser visits - will the menu rest each time the Included file is called, or will it persist from page to page?

JavaScript Tree Menu has only two states normal and mouseover.
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.
See the attached example. Open deluxe-menu1.html. The first item ishighlighted. Then click to open deluxe-menu2.html file. The second item ishighlighted.

JavaScript Tree Menu is the Javascript product. It means that it works on aclient side only and it doesn't depend on the server which you'reusing and it doesn't work on a server side as SSI script.
So when your browser reloads a page with the menu your menu reloads too.
Q: Is this transparent feature there for individual submenu styles or for individual menu items in scrolling menu? I want that.
A: See, you can use "transparent" value instead of any color in the mainmenu parameters and in Individual styles.
var menuBackColor="transparent";
var menuBorderColor="transparent";
var itemBackColor=["transparent","transparent"];
var itemBorderColor=["transparent","transparent"];
var moveColor="transparent";
var shadowColor="transparent";
var itemStyles = [
["itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderColor=transparent,transparent"],
];
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBorderColor=transparent"],
];
Q: I need to have a horizontal menu and a vertical menu on the same page (obviously with different content). I did this as two separate "projects" in the tuner and gave them different names so that the files wouldn't step on each other. However, it looks like only the second menu works, though it does show both. I assume it has something to do with the variable dmWorkPath overriding the first value with the second. How can I have two menus each with different content on the same HTML page?
A: You can use as many menus as you want on the one page.
But you should call dmWorkPath parameter and dmenu.js file only once.
