Q: In my previous email asking about your menu program's ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page, I made a mistake - I was experimenting with Vista xp1 style, the black/blue shiny dhtml menu templates.
A: The menu has only two states normal and mouseover. We'll try to add the pressed state in the future.
You can 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.

The main menus and sub menus work fine in IE but in Firefox the sub menus do not appear at all. Is their a fix for this. I realize that firefox does not support IE transitions but Ithought the sub menus would appear when the main item is clicked on. that hs not happened. Go to above URL and vie in both IE and Firefox and you will see what I mean.
A: You couldn't see submenus in FF because you had
var transparency="";
You should set your parameters in the following way:
var transparency="100";
var itemBackColor=["#072450",""];
Q: If var bselectedSmItem= anything other than 0, the dropdown menu maken links do not work and I get the following error:
A: You should set bselectedSmItem parameter in tabMode=1 only. When youhave subitems.
I'm also sending you the fixed version of dtabs.js file. Please, useit.
