How would i actually have text light up or do an event when the mouse is over it? I have an idea, but i just don''t want to go about things the hard way.

bool MOUSE_OVER = false;
While(!Done)
{
   MOUSE_OVER = MyPickingTestFunction(MENU_ITEM);
   if(MOUSE_OVER)
      DrawBrightMenuItem();
   else
      DrawPlainItem();
}

To figure out how to do the picking, check out the NeHe tutorial on the subject. Best of luck to you.
