Q: I have a client that wants a menu bar with all the buttons the same length.
What code might I need to do that
A: You should use individual item styles (you can create it in Deluxe Tuner application). For example:
var itemStyles = [
["itemWidth=110px"], // 0 - number of the style
var menuItems = [
["Home","testlink.html", , , , , "0", , , ], // 0 - style 0
["Product Info","", "default.files/icon1.gif", "default.files/icon1o.gif", , , "0", , , ], // 0 - style 0
["|Features","testlink.html", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", , , , , , ],
["|Installation","", "default.files/icon2.gif", "default.files/icon2o.gif", , , , , , ],

Q: I'm interesting in dhtml menue ability to display a different color word on a menu item when the site is on that selected page
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.
Q: I have built out a vertical menu that fits within a fixed size box. The items of the menus are all fixed size images. However when increasing the font size in the browser under View -> Text Size the spacing between the images increases and the html java menu no longer fits within the fixed space. I did have CSS padding-top in the html java menu that I took out but it still does not fit in the space. I took out but it still does not fit in the space.
Have you run into this before or do you know of a fix for this?
A: You've installed the menu in DIV with absolute position (boxNav). Thatis why you have such behaviour.
Try to use relative position for this DIV.
