Q: I know I can fix the width of the entire (horizontal) menu. But is there a way to fix the width of each Item in the menu? I would like each Item to be the same width.
A: Please, try to specify units in "px", for example.
var menuWidth = "600px";
It's necessary to specify exact value for Mozilla browsers. It helpsto position menus correctly.
Try to set individual style for item width:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=120px"],
];
var menuItems = [
["Text1","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
["Text2","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
["Text3","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
["Text4","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],
["Text5","", "data.files/products.gif", "data.files/products_mo.gif", "Products", "_self", "0", , , ],

Q: I'm using the trial version of your product and have a question for you before purchasing:
How do I show different content when selecting the different dhtml layer menu tabs?
For example, when I use the Windows Forms tab control in VB .NET, there's more to the tab control than just the dhtml layer menu tabs themselves...there's also the "body" of each individual tab that changes when I select different tabs.
Does your product do the same?
A: You should specify any Object ID name of the DIV.
See, for each item you should assign the ID property of the contentDIV (see data file with your menu parameters).
["Style Name","contentName", "", "", "", "", "1", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Description","contentDescription", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Style Variations","contentVariations", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "0", "", "", ],
["Empty","", "", "", "", "", "2", "", "", ],
And on your html page you should create DIV's with such ID. You canset background image for these DIV's in styles.
<div id="contentName" style="height: 0%; visibility: hidden; background-image: url('img/back.jpg'); background-repeat:repeat-y;" class="tabPage">
<br><br><br>
<p align=center><img src="img/style01_title.gif" width=140 height=90 alt="Glass Style Tabs"></p>
<br><br><br>
You should paste your content here!!!!!

Q: Is there a javascript function that I can call that will return the ID or the Text value of the currently active tab of the web navigation?
A: Unfortunately there is no such a function now.
There are such variables.
dtabs_tabs[menuN].b1 - dtabs_tabs[menuN].selectedItem
dtabs_tabs[menuN].JT0 - dtabs_tabs[menuN].selectedSmItem
But they contain the index of the selected menu item, not the ID.
