Q: What i am doing is a horizontal menu with submenus opening down vertically. The main menu and sub menu has a background image. These are rather large for a menu and when the sub menu expands i want it to stay below the main menu and not go upwards to cover the main menu when the browser window is too small.
A: Yes, they will stay forcibly below the main menu.
You can use Smart Scrollable Feature. In that case sub menus won't cover
the main menu items. You can see an example here

You may specify the exact height for submenus, for example:
var smHeight="500px";
Use the following parameters to set the direction for submenus:
var subMenuAlign="left";
var subMenuVAlign="top";

Does yours or doesn't it do the same thing and if so, where is there an example?
A: Deluxe Menu overlaps flash in all browsers.

Q: I'm having a problem with the new v3.9.2 javascript menu source. The drop-down submenus are now going "up" instead of "down".
I've tried the conversion steps in your email and I have even rebuilt the menu from scratch in v3.9.2. In the Deluxe Menu Preview window, the drop-down sub-menus behave properly - transitioning down below the horizontal menu. But it FireFox3, IE7 and Chrome the submenus appear above the horizontal menu.
Also... the transition effect (24 - Alpha Blend) only appears in IE7 - it is not evident in FireFox3 or in Chrome.
A: Set the following parameter:
var subMenuVAlign="top";

Transitional effects are features of Internet Explorer 5.5+ only.

- Menu does not stay within table cell
- Is not floating
A: > - DHTML slide down menu does not stay within table cell
You're using the floating feature now. Your dhtml slide down menu will float withabsolute position only. So, now you have:
var tabsolute=1;
var tleft="1px";
var ttop="1px";
That is why your dhtml slide down menu does not stay within table cell and hasabsolute position.
