Automatic sizing top menu items

Is it possible to make the top menu items
autoresize, to the width of the titel in the menu item.

For example
Menuitem 'Home' is small/standard
and
Menuitem 'Personal intrests' resizes to
make it fit.

Many thanx!

We wanted this feature from the very first versions, but we still haven't found the way to implement it with some browsers that our menus support. The way around is some server side script that calculates the width of the text based on the sizes table for characters then adds margins and then prints in values dynamically into Tigra Menu PRO or Tigra Menu GOLD configuration (free version doesn't support individual item sizes, only per level sizes).

Luckely I don't have to support all the browser you do. I only have to support IE.

I first tried it with the use of:
* document.getElementById().style.width
* document.getElementById().innerWidth
But they seem to have only a value if the
width of the object is set.

I now found an other width:
* document.getElementById().offsetWidth

Probably this only works in IE but that works for me.
