Q:
I need to include background
images for my navigation, so I put them in the same folder where the
 "data.js" file can be found. I am
 using the deluxe tuner in order to call these files and it looks great
 in the preview. As soon as I save the file and load it in the browser, the background images are missing.  
 Any solutions for this problem?
     
A:
Now you have such paths for all your images data.files/image.gif  
  
var itemStyles = [   
    ["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav01_off.gif,data.files/nav01_off.gif"],    
    ["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav02_off.gif,data.files/nav02_off.gif"],   
    ["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav03_off.gif,data.files/nav03_off.gif"],    
    ["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav04_off.gif,data.files/nav04_off.gif"],    
    ["itemWidth=128px","itemBackImage=data.files/nav05_off.gif,data.files/nav05_off.gif"],    
];                                                                                            
  
But you don't have images in "data.files/" folder. That's why you
can't see them.   
Please, check all your paths.    
  
You can use additional parameters to make menu paths absolute: 
  
var pathPrefix_img  = "http://domain.com/images/";   
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";  
  
These parameters allow to make images and links paths absolute. 
For example:              
  
var pathPrefix_img  = "http://domain.com/images/";   
var pathPrefix_link = "http://domain.com/pages/";       
var menuItems = [          
  ["text", "index.html", "icon1.gif", "icon2.gif"],  
];                       
  
So, link path will be look so:     
http://domain.com/pages/index.html    
                                       
Images paths will be look so:          
http://domain.com/images/icon1.gif      
http://domain.com/images/icon2.gif     
  
Please, try to use these parameters.
