Configuring the menu

Inside the above zip file you'll find comprehensive documentation and demos by the author on how to set up jsDomenuBar. Furthermore, we've added an extra "dynamicdrive" folder, which is self contained, and illustrates how the demo on this page was put together.

Upgrading from version 1.0.1

To upgrade from version 1.0.1, you'll need to replace your existing .js files with the new ones. For your menu structure, the key function "menuObj = new jsDOMenuBar()" has changed in terms of accepted parameters, so you'll need to modify this function per the included instruction.

Enjoy!
