Q: Is there a way to have multiple drop down menus on the same web page? What I mean by that is I have a banner with drop downs (horizontal on page) that I want to use possibly with an include statement and when you click on one of the links from the drop down it would take you to a page that is say a department for example. But on this "department page" it would have another list of drop down menues in a different location in a vertical list. This gets tricky with a second set of script running to define the banner and a second set of drop down menues running vertical in a different location.
A: You can use as many different drop down menus on your site or your page as you want.
See more info about installation of several menus on the single pagehere:

Q: Could you also tell me where I should place the images I wish to use in the menu, eg arrows. When I select an image to use they are not appearing in the preview, or when I launch deluxe-menu.html?
A: Please, check images paths within data .js file.
For example, if you have data.js file here:
c:/website/data.js
and your images are stored here:
c:/website/images/
you should set image name so (for example):
var arrowImageMain = ["images/arrow1.gif", "images/arrow2.gif"];
If you use Tuner, you should save data .js file before you'll selectimages. When you save .js file it means that you set a root directoryfor the project, so Tuner can make all selected images with relativepaths.
Q: What I need to do to use drop down menu generator on my mac?

Q: We have a problem with true type fonts. The dropdown menu in html does not showing properly for Turkish letters. We are using true type fonts (bold 10px TR Tahoma).
A: Font.If there will be no TR Tahoma font on the user machinethe font won't be shown correctly.
You can find another font similar to your font and write it through a comma.
You should choose the font among the following fonts:
Arial
Tahoma
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
These fonts are installed on the most of windows computers.
For example:
var fontStyle=["bold 9px TR Tahoma, Tahoma","bold 9px TR Tahoma, Tahoma"];
Or you can create images with text and use it for the top items.
Encoding.
You can save your data file in UTF-8 in Windows version of DeluxeTuner v3.2.5.
You should turn on "Tools/Use utf8 encode" property.In that case your data file will be saved in UTF-8 encode.
Enter these symbols and save your data file.
If you don't want to use UTF-8 encode on your page you should turn off"Tools/Use utf8 encode" property, save your data file and manuallychange your letters in any text editor.
You can also replace your letters with special sets, for example
É - Capital E, acute accent - É
ç - Small c, cedilla - ç
var menuItems = [
["É....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["ç....","testlink.html", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
