Hi Fernando,
Thank you for your response. The current beta link is

What I am trying to do is fill in the entire width of the container with the menu bar. I have somewhat accomplished this by adding a spacer piece to the "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a" style and adding the background link graphic to the "ul.MenuBarHorizontal" style. A problem I am currently having is that the "spacer" piece is an active link because it is part of the "ul.MenuBarHorizontal a" style, it should not be seen as a hover link.
In summary I was hoping to find an simpler way to make the spry menu fill the width of the container div (much like the creative cow link bar) with variable width links, or at least eliminate the "spacer" being seen as an active link.
Thank you for your help, As you may have guessed I am fairly new to Dreamweaver CS4 and HTML in general so any advise or info links you may offer is greatly appreciated.
