Q: We've been using Deluxe Menu for a couple of years now and we're very pleased with it. Recently, we switched to a layout heavy on CSS, and when we insert the javascript menu code into an absolutely-positioned div, the menu appears where it should, but the sub-menus drop down off to the side in both Firefox and IE. I've tried adjusting the x-offsets in the configuration file with negative values to bring them closer to the top-level menu item, but this doesn't seem to do the trick completely.
I also went through a number of sample questions in the support section of the Deluxe Menu site, but I haven't been able to find any sort of resolution.
If you have any suggestions, I'd be very appreciative.
A: See, the problem is that the script can't get css properties of the object if they are described in separate .css block (or file).
In other words, you can't get the value of "POSITION: absolute" attribute of the object if the object doesn't have this property within inline style (style="POSITION:absolute;"). To get the value you should move .css style into style="" attribute.
Please, try to add your
css file -> inline css, for example:
You should add style="POSITION: absolute; TOP: 0px"
to the
<div id=div_name>
So, you'll have:
<DIV id=div_name style="POSITION: absolute; TOP: 0px">aaspot_US~.Hration...M&Project Tool Configuration.Try that.
Q: I'm using your menu for my customers.
IHtml menu script works really great but since your last updates I'm really missing the parameter smviewtype=3, so I can have a subnavigation going other direction as usual.
Since you had this feature build in I choosed your menu and did a lot of programming, to get it integrated into contenido cms system.
I would be very pleased, if you could help me on this point.
A: You should set the way you show submenus using subMenuAlign and subMenuVAlign parameters.See more info here:

A: You should set the following parameters:
var smColumns=0;
var smOrientation=1; //horizontal orientation of submenus
set white backcolor for submenus
["itemWidth=60px","itemBackColor=#FFFFFF,#FFFFFF","itemBorderWidth=0","itemBorderStyle=none,",
"itemBorderColor=#FFFFFF,", "fontColor=#404040,#404040","fontDecoration=none,underline"],
