Regarding the menu in DNN.  There are a couple of simple things that I need to accomplish, but they keep eluding me.  I'll start with posting one of these issues here and see how it goes.

Here it is.  I simply need to make each menu tab be the same width.  Anybody know how to do this?  I need each one to be 130 pixels wide.  So far I haven't been able to find an example of a skin that has fixed uniform width menu tabs.  Rather the automatic width - adjusting to the text seems pervasive through all DNN sites.

Sometimes it seems the simplest little things can drive you crazy trying to figure out.  Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated.

The look of the dnn:MENU or SOLPARTMENU is controlled by the classes in the stylesheet.

You can control the dimensions of the menu items by specifying the width and height of the MainMenu_MenuItem class, like this:

.MainMenu_MenuItem {
  color: #000000;
 font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica;
 font-size: 9pt;
 font-weight: bold;
 font-style: normal;
 background-color: Transparent;
  width: 130px;
 height: 21px;
}

You may need to tweak other menu item styles to produce a consistent look.

Hope this helps!

}

I tried this, but unfortunately, it doesn't work.  I appreciate your input though.

Hummmm . . . it works on my testing page . . . I always test things out before I post them up. I am not certain whether you have any settings that might have overridden the style class . . .

Oh, well!
