There's been some talk about menu items at Joel on Software and ignore the code. If a menu item refers to an action that can't be done right now, should the menu item be : * disabled : the default. You can't click it, you don't know why. * active : click it and show an alert explaining why it can't be done. * disabled + tooltip : a short delay hovering the disabled item will explain why it is disabled.
