Q: Where do I increase the width of the javascript menu bars for each entry? Some of my links are a bit longer than the image and it's causing it to use part of another gif to cover it. Sorry not sure if I even explained that right. Let me know if this makes sense. 
A:  I suppose that you're using Vista style templates.
The width of vista images is 94px. If the width of your menu itemis wider than 94px you should correct the width of the images in anygraph editor, for example in Photoshop. You should set the width ofthese images 120px and set the following parameter:
  var itemStyles = [
 ["itemWidth=120px","itemBackColor=transparent,transparent","itemBorderWidth=0","fontStyle=bold 10pxTahoma","fontColor=#FFFFFF,#F8FF95","itemBackImage=columbine.files/btn_orange.gif,columbine.files/btn_orange2.gif"],
];
You can also try to use the following parameter to use combinedbackground for your items:
  var beforeItemImage = [,]; //left-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var itemBackImage = [,]; //background or image for normal and mouse over state
  var afterItemImage = [,]; //right-side image for normal and mouse over state
  var beforeItemImageW = '';
  var afterItemImageW = '';
  var beforeItemImageH = '';
  var afterItemImageH ='';
Q: I just discovered your product and I think it is fabulous! I would like to buy it, but have one issue which is strange: 
 I have a list of 12 items, each with a submenu that is loaded using the ajax technology. The submenues are loaded correctly for the first 8 items, but not for the last 4 items. I can switch items around, always the first 8 only get loaded. Is there a limitation to 8 items?
 
A: No, there is no such limitation. 
Please, check the following parameter: 
  var dmAJAXCount=0; 
 That variable set the maximal number of submenus that will be loadedfrom server on your page.
Q: I made a html CD presentation based on cascading drop down menu but it works good only onIE and Google Chrome web browsers.
 It doesn't work good on Mozilla Firefox browser. It shows menu properly but there is a problem with normal navigation.
 The problem is with paths. I put the main js file in "menu" folder and I also have few folders with many html files in them. 
 For path I use the following "file:/(direct path to specific html file)". It works fine with IE and Google, but Mozilla/Firefox doesn't show the menu.
 I tried also to use prefix "file:/" but it also doesn't show the cascading drop down menu on Mozilla/Firefox.
 Is there any way to solve this problem?
 Thank you for your answer. 
A:  It is not correct to add "file:/" in the link field.
You should write:
menu/image.gif
or
../menu/image.gif
You can try also to write links in the following way:
file://html/other/1.html
But I don't think that this will help you.
This is a feature of Firefox browser, Opera and Safari. These browsers cannot determine the root folder ofthe website (D:\ in the examples below) on a local machine (as IE and Google Chrome).
IE: D:\html\other\page.html (works)
Opera: file://localhost/html/other/page.html (link doesn't work)
Google Chrome: file:///D:/html/other/page.html (works)
Safari: file:///html/other/page.html (link doesn't work)
Firefox: file:///html/other/page.html (link doesn't work)
You use relative paths (and your folders have several embedded folders), so your links won'twork correctly in Firefox, Opera and Safari. The reason is not in the menu. Standard linkswon't work too.
So I think that the unique solution in your case is to move ALL link files (1.html,2.html, a.html ...) into the same folder with your index.html file.
Q: This is probably a really basic question, but I was wondering if
 your dhtml menu maker makes it possible to determine the direction of the
 drop down menu. In other words, my menu is at the bottom of the page
 and I want the drop down list to actually go "up," not down.
 Is that possible with your software?
A: Yes it is possible.
You should use the following parameter
  var subMenuVAlign="top"; //downward
  var subMenuVAlign="bottom"; //upward
  var subMenuAlign="left"; //from left to right
  var subMenuAlign="right"; //from right to left
