When I use add menu to create a menu item everything works perfectly except for the # sign appearing in the status bar. I dont want this as I dont want people to be able to click this menu item.
,"Cables","show-menu=Cables",,,1
This has the # in the status bar
if i did this ,"Cables","show-menu=Cables","Mike",,1
Mike appears in the status bar.
Your users cannot click on the "show-menu". When they mouse over the menu label then the "show-menu" takes place. Are you sure than your not getting the "#" displayed when the menu is item is a "show-header" type of item?? Maybe I do not understand your problem??
