Q: We are having a bit of trouble with your menu, when you go down into a sub menu, and then back to the item that called it, the sub menu expands.
For example, if i have this menu structure
File
     New
     Save
     Exit
When i MouseOver New and then MouseOver File, the menu containing New, Save and Exit will grow. If i keep doing this then the menu will continue to expand horizontally.
I know its something we have done, since there doesn't seem to be a problem on your site, its just i don't know what it is
A: Rozi, we heard about such problems. I suppose that you see such effectin IE.
Please, try not to use shadow in the menu.
Please, set this parameter:
var shadowLen=0;
We'll correct this bug soon.
Try also write all units in "px", for example:
var itemPadding = "3px";

</OBJECT></a>Q: I've added a tab menu to a site but I want to know
how to get the active tab to stay a certain color in the html tabs menu
when you're on that tabs page.
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return theselected tab.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
based on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
from your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=<?php echo $seltabs; ?>;
var bselectedSmItem=<?php echo $selsmtabs; ?>;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, forexample:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
