All options are optional. diputree has reasonable defaults for every option in the options parameter. Although defaults exist you should not count on the values of these defaults, they may change over time. So, if you want to implement a special look and feel you should declare your own options.

Colors are represented by a hexadecimal value. The
first 2 digits are for the red component, the next 2 for the green component and the final
2 for the blue component.
The value of a color component can range from 00 to FF ( 00 = no intensity, FF = full
intensity)
e.g. FFFFFF is the hexadecimal representation of white, 000000 is black.

The initial size (100%) and the scrollbardivider value
control the representation of the scrollbar. It can be divided by an integer value of 1 or
greater.
e.g. a divider value of 3 will give a 33% coverage of the scrollbar.

Your web document can be divided into different frames. Every frame acts as a container for another web document, effectively creating a hierarchy of (contained) subdocuments.
You can assign a name to each frame individually. By default your browser assigns names to some special frames, such as: _blank (a new frame), _self (this frame), _parent (this frames parent) and _top (the uppermost parent frame, the root of the frame hierarchy).
You can individually switch icons, the connecting
lines and status messages on and off.
Possible values are 0 and 1 ( 0 = dont show, 1 = show ).

Pop up tips are small messages that pop up whenever there is no user action during a specified period.
Non-containers can be grouped together. If grouping is
disabled entries will be displayed in the order they were entered.
Possible values are 0 and 1 (0 = dont group, 1 = group ).
If you use relative URLs then baseurl is used to
complete your URL.
So if all your link URLs are located in a directory " /mydirectory" at
your web site "http://www.mywebsite.com" than you can define a baseurl
"http://www.mywebsite.com/mydirectory".
Now you only have to use the filenames of your URLs instead of the complete URL in
your links parameter.
The default URL for baseurl is the URL of the
directory that contains the applet.
So if your applet is located in
"http://www.mysite.com/mydirectory/diputree.class", then the baseurl will be
"http://www.mysite.com/mydirectory".
baseurl is used in the links parameter.
