Q: How does the search engine stuff work. A web developer told me to stay away from java script if you want google to recognize your webpage.
Can you comfort me by telling me how it works.
A: Spiders can't read dynamically-generated Javascript code, so theycan't read menu links.
Search engine friendly means that you can add additional html codewithin your html page. You can generate such a code using Deluxe TunerGUI that you can find in the trial menu package. But if you'll use themenu without any additional html code, spider won't see menu links.
Q: I just need to know if there is a way of establishing the width at "runtime" in the javascript dynamic menu so that my frame in my frameset can be widened accordingly.
A: There are no special parameters for menu dimensions.
But you can use submenu IDs. For example, top-menu has ID"dmXXXm0"
Where XXX - menu index. So, first menu on the page has ID "dm0m0".
So, you can determine menu dimensions so:
document.getElementById('dm0m0').offsetWidth
document.getElementById('dm0m0').offsetHeight
You can also use Javascript API functions to take submenu IDs.
Q: At my site the java script popup menu works fine with the frame on the home page but hides behind a new flash form I created. You can access this in "Marketing Tools" and click on "What's your Project". I noticed that it seems to work fine in IE but not in Firefox.
A: See fix for java script popup menu and flash in Firefox here:

Q: The spacing between each item of the top horizontal dropdown menu is uneven but I don't know why.
If you highlight them all it becomes more obvious.
It is almost as if the space after a 2 word link is twice the space after a one word link or else the total space after each link is related to the number of letters in the link.
For example the space after 'Discounts' is greater than the space after 'Home' but the space after 'Envelope Printing' is even greater.
A: You can try to set the following horizontal dropdown menu parameters:
var menuWidth="";
var itemPadding="0px 10px 0px 10px";
