Q: I was trying to work out how to set the target for a link in html tab menu
A: No,unfortunately it is not possible in Deluxe Tabs now.
But you can write your links in the following way:
["Item 1","javascript:window.open('http://www.google.com','_blank','height=600,width=800,status=yes,toolbar=no,
menubar=no,location=no');", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 2","javascript:window.open('http://www.deluxe-menu.com','_self');", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
Q: We are using your deluxe menu on our live site, but I have a question about the initial setup of the menu.
I need to update the site and a create a new version where the Deluxe Menu is painted, but not initially displayed until the user has been validated. We are runing the entire site from a single page with multiple iFrames. I have been using the code document.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility = "hidden"; to hide the menu during startup, but I would rather have the floating menu hidden initially and then displayed as the user is validated and gain access to the functionality.
So the question is: Is there a property in the data.js file - or any other file - where the menu can be hidden initially until needed?
A: You can hide the menu onloaddocument.getElementById('dm0m0').style.visibility = "hidden";
And then show the floating menu when your user will be validated.

Q: I used Deluxe Menu and generated a beautiful drop down navigation menu for our school web page. however, I am using MS FrontPage and apparently it is blocking the content. Whenever I bring it into the program all I get is a text drop down navigation menu. What am I doing or not doing?
A: Deluxe Menu wasn't developed as Dreamweaver/Frontpage extension,BUT you can use it as standard Javascript files. To install the drop down navigation menuinto your html page:
1. create and save .js file with your menu parameters in Deluxe Tuner
2. open the page in Frontpage
3. add several rows of code (<script> tags), For info see:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html
<head>
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath="deluxe-menu.files/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="deluxe-menu.files/dmenu.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="data-deluxe-menu.js"></script>//your data file created in Deluxe Tuner
...
</body>
You should copy all engine files and images for the drop down navigation menu in "deluxe-menu.files/" folder and paste it in the same folder with you .html files.
Engine files:
dmenu.js
dmenu4.js
dmenu_add.js
dmenu_dyn.js
dmenu_key.js
dmenu_cf.js
dmenu_popup.js
dmenu_ajax.js
dmenu_search.js
That's all.
It is possible that you'll have errors in the preview but your drop down navigation menushould work fine in the browser.
