Q: We'd like to underline dhtml pop up menu items on hover but we can't do it with those spaces.
A: To set align for the one dhtml pop up menu item only you can use the following method:
instead of
 ["email a temp expert                               ","email.html", "", "", "", "", "15", "", "", "", "", ],
you can write:
 ["<div align=left>email a temp expert</div>","email.html", "", "", "", "", "15", "", "", "", "", ],
and set fontDecoration=none,underline style for this item:
 ["itemWidth=248px","itemHeight=41px","itemBackImage=dd-data.files/emailatemp.JPG,dd-data.files/emailatemp.JPG","fontStyle='bold 11px Arial',''","fontColor=#005D8C,#002030","fontDecoration=none,underline"],
Q: Hi, I am testing your menu system for my company and would like to know how to keep the menu in the centre of the page like <centre></centre>.
 I know how to do it without a floating menu but cannot work out how to do this with it floating.
 
A: When you use floatable menu you can't use relative menu position. 
So, if you use 
  var absolutePos = 0; 
and to center the menu you use <p> or <div> with the center alignment your menu won't float.
To center your floatable menu you should set absolute coordinates. 
Q: I want to buy your product today, but have a few questions: 
 How do I change the font style for java menu templates to 9pt Verdana bold, but leave the sub-menus 9pt Verdana normal? I understand there’s a "fontStyle" variable, but is there an "itemfontStyle"? How do I make the left hand padding greater for the menu? I’m using the XP Style 1 and the far left top menu item is running up against my left hand border. I want to add about 10px of spacing to the left of the menu. How do I make the options in a menu have equal spacing? For instance, if there are 5 items in the menu, how can each have 100% / 5? 
A:  You can use Individual Item styles to set specific parameters for eachitem or submenu.
1.
  var fontStyle=["normal 9pt Verdana","normal 9pt Verdana"]; //for subitems
//style for the top items
  var itemStyles = [
 ["itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
];
2., 4. You should specify itemPadding parameter in "px". You shouldadd "px" in your style for subitems:
  var menuStyles = [
 ["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=1","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
Notice also that you can set multiple value for itemPadding parameter,for example:
itemPadding=4px 10px 4px 10px
 top right bottom left
4. You should set the exact width for the java menu templates:
  var menuWidth="500px";
and set width for the top items using Individual styles:
 ["itemWidth=100px","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
Unfortunately it is not possible to specify item's width in '%' inIndividual styles. The following width parameters won't work.
  var menuWidth="100%";
 ["itemWidth=20%","itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#1665CB","fontStyle='bold 9pt Verdana','bold 9pt Verdana'"],
