Q: Just one more question.
I'm making a drop menu sample but I want the dropdown sub menus to drop up!
ie: the nav bar will actually be at the bottom of the page so when you hover over, I need the sub items to rise up.
Can you force this? I can't seem to find anywhere to do it.
A: You should set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="bottom";
Q: The problem I am having is specfically on the home page. The Navigation dhtml horizontal menu is at the top of the page. There are also Flash documents on this page only. When you go to the dhtml horizontal menu and select and option that has Sub-Items and position your mouse over those items, when the menu expands to show all of the text, it is cut off on theright side, this only occurres when there is a flash document behind the menu. All of the other pages work fine.
Do you have any idea why this occurrs? I have tried several things to fix this, but no luck. Is there a fix for this?
A: Try to set exact width for your sub menus. You can do it usingIndividual Submenu style:
var menuStylesNames=["Top Menu","width1","width2",];
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=transparent","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=0","itemPadding=5px 6px 5px 6px"],
["smWidth=100px"],
["smWidth=210px"],
];

Q: There is the possibility in the dhtml menu bars that an item has access control, that is is visible or not depending of the user?

They appear but only after mouseing-over the menu and waiting for approximately one second.

var dm_writeAll=0;
var smShowPause=100;
var smHidePause=1000;
