Header/Seperator

I know how to create a header. I want to use a header with no text in it, but I do not want the header to be the same height as the other menu items. I just want to use it as a visual seperator from other menu items.
aI("text= align=center;type=header;");
Can I control the height of the header??

I'll assume this is vertical, have you tried itemheight and fontsize in the item?

Don't forget, Bob, that is a valid character, and will have the default applied to it if nothing else is there to override it.
Another possibility is removing it - just text=; .

Thanks, Maz & John.
I used "itemheight" and eliminated  . I can now control the item height.
Is there a way to just control the color for this pseudo header/separator bar entry, rather than taking on the color for headerbgcolor as defined in the menu style??
aI("text=;type=header;itemheight=2;");

Yes, headerbgcolor is both a global and item property, so you can specify it in the item. The same is true of headercolor, though without text you dont need that.
Code:
aI("text=;type=header;itemheight=2;headerbgcolor=#f0f0f0;");
This would allow the globally defined headerbgcolor to apply to other headers and this one to have whatever you specify in that item.
