Someone gave me an example of a menu, so dont give me credit for this (a guy named Zach gave this to me.) I thought I would post it so you can see the source code for an example on a menu...

The source is attached to this post,

Its not bad work except that it uses labels. I much prefer functions() myself.

How would I go about making one with functions? I could never figure out how to get 2 menu's in with each other, so would fuctions prevent some weird menu problems, like wrong background with the right buttons?

Thx,
