help with divhider and mulitple word menu sections

This is the divhider.js file beginning code.

Code:

M_hideMenus = "Samples->formdiv1;Samples->formdiv2;milonic->formdiv2;"

This is what I used for my menu

Code:

M_hideMenus = "This Site->div1;Around The Web->div1;Search->div1;Contact->div1;Milonic Menus->div1;"

I'm using it to hide an applet. It works fine with the two single word sections: search and contact, but won't work with the others. I have tried inserting a non breaking space [& nbsp ;] between the words, both in the menu and in the code, I've tried putting the ->div1; after each single word [This->div1;Site->div1; etc. Neither attempt worked. Any solution to get it to work with more than one word?

Just guessing here, because I haven't looked at this code, but doesn't this point to the name of the <div> you're after, rather than the text? If so, the internal name can be one word (e.g., This_Site) without messing up your menu look.

Of course, I could still have the fever... :roll:

[edit] deleted links and question[endedit] Ok, I finally figured it out for anyone else that is as unknowledgeable

as I...... When you code the divhider.js file you don't use the names that appear in the main menu, but the names of the dropdown menus that you have in your menu data file ;"

Code:

with(milonic=new menuname("main2")){
style=main2;
aI("text= Poetry, Graphics, Games ;showmenu=whatevermenuname;");
}

would be coded like this in the divhider.js file

Code:

M_hideMenus = "whatevermenuname->div1;" or whatever you named your div....
