I am trying to format the second level of a tab menu that appears when you mouseover to have the same table format as the level that always shows.

Thanks,

<table border="0" width="720" style="border-collapse: collapse" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<p align="center">
<font face="Verdana,Arial,Helvetica">
<!--Links used to initiate the sub menus. Pass in the desired submenu index numbers (ie: 0, 1) -->
<b>

<table border="1" width="100%" bgcolor="<%=CoColor%>" style="border-collapse: collapse">

Your request is a script customisation question - too time consuming, I'm afraid.

Please don't just keep asking until you get answers - we probably don't know if we haven't been able to help before
