When someone is at the home page, I need to have one of the menu items and its submenu items expanded out.
Has anyone ever done this?

I think this can be done using CSS classes in the same way as $LinkingMode works, provided that is how your menu knows what to expand.
So you could have a condition like this:
<% if URLSegment = home %>
<a class="Open" href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a>
<% else %>
<a href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a>
<% end_if %>
or you could create a function IsOpen() that returned the relevant class (if any) and call it via class="$IsOpen".
Aram,
You rock - thank you for this. Worked perfectly. Here's how I implemented it - works like a charm.
<% if URLSegment = rit-113-imrt-qa-software %>
<% control Children %>
<ul id="smenu">
<li class="sm$ID"><a href="$Link" title="Go to the $Title.XML page" class="sa$ID">$MenuTitle</a></li>
</ul>
<% end_control %>
<% end_if %>
Thanks again,
Terry
