Q: The buttons show up just fine in IE, but not in the other browsers. I am using Frontpage for my html.
A: Your file names are incorrect.
For example, now you have:
Button gold side 2 NEW.GIF
Button purple side 2 NEW.GIF
Firefox and Opera cannot open a file with blanks in the name.
Please, rename your files, for example:
Button_gold_.GIF
Button_purple.GIF
Your menu will work fine.

Is there a way to force a wrap of a tab title in a tab menu java?
A: No, unfortunately, tab menu cannot wrap item text automatically.
But you can use
tag within item text, for example
var bmenuItems = [
["Item 1 text <br> text text text <br> text text text ","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 2","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Item 3","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];
Q: This is a great product and I hope to use it for the project I am currently working on. I have played around with using simple javascript menu but have been unable to figure out how to make sub menu items live on multiple rows and columns. Could you point me in the right direction? I know with the individual styles I could make the category titles bold and put sub categories right underneath without actually making them sub categories.
