Q: Is there any way to keep a menu lit up when going to another page? Or do the menus always have to default back to their normal state?
I want the menu to know what page the user is on and keep that section highlighted. Any ideas?
A: You should set a pressed item using Javascript API:
function dm_ext_setPressedItem (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, recursion)
Sets a current pressed item.
menuInd - index of a menu on a page, >= 0.
submenuInd - index of a submenu, >= 0.
itemInd - index of an item, >=0.
recursion = true/false - highlight parent items.
But notice, to use dm_ext_setPressedItem() you should know ID of selected item and subitem.
You can't get this ID after you reload your page. That is why you should write your own code on PHP.

Q: Why is the submenu a different colour has a different colour than menu items - surely that's not an IE specific feature? The top-level menu items seem to be a different size too, so the layout in IE looks more even.
A: Submenus has a different color because they have a transparency:
var transparency="90";
Set it to 100.
Submenus also have larger width than top items because they containsmore text. If you want to wrap the text, use
tag between item words.
Q: Expandable javascript menu doesn't actually affect the plus/minus icon I have specified. Any ideas?
A: It is not correctly to add expand/collapse buttons into the iconfield, they won't work. You should add icons there.
To add expand/collapse buttons you should use the followingparameters:
var texpandBtn=["img/expandbtn.gif","img/expandbtn.gif","img/collapsebtn.gif"];
var texpandBtnW=14;
var texpandBtnH=14;
var texpandBtnAlign="left";
