1.I need some of my buttons to be completely unclickable, they just need to be there to get into the submenu which will have the clickable buttons. When I change the target to _self and make the url and ID blank, sometimes it tries to take me to a page called "_self" for example it will take me to www.example.com/_self and I get a 404 error because I don't have any files called _self.

2. Is it possible for the menu to not close when somebody clicks a button? Like I said in my first question, I need some buttons to be unclickable and I don't want people to accidently click a button without a link and then have the whole menu close, I want the menu to stay open until they click a button that goes to a link.

3. What does the ID field do when editing a button?

Also making the submenus open on "click" instead of "rollover" is not functional because the click will close the menu instantly. For example if you set it to open on click and then you click a button to open submenu, the submenu will open but only for a split second because right away the menu closes, making the menu unusable. I'm sure there can be some simple fix to this.

<p>Hi, Regarding the first problem you cant make a button to be completely unclickable but what you are describing it should not happened. I think that it is happening because you have a blank space in the URL field and you should check it. If it still happening please send us the page URL. </p>
<p>Regarding the second question, unfortunately, in the current version of the extension, it is not possible. It will be great if you can provide URL and see the use case of what you are describing. </p>
<p>More about the purpose of the ID field can be found <a href="http://www.extendstudio.com/Docs/Creative DW Drop Down Menu/8_Handling_persistence.html">here</a> .</p>
<p>Regarding the last problem, you can use On Rollover instead of On Click. More about this <a href="http://www.extendstudio.com/Docs/Creative DW Drop Down Menu/23_The_Animations_Tab.html">here</a> ... under Submenu Behavior. Regards,
