That fix works perfectly, many thanks Jason.
Could you explain why this was necessary so that I, and I'm sure others, can have a better understanding of menu writer.
Because I am still developing my site and constantly updating my menu preset, is this change permanently applied to the preset or will it be needed after each edit of the menu preset?
I am also finding that any edits of my menu preset, which has been used in a dreamweaver template, doesnt seem to be automatically reflected in the template.
