All,
I created a horizontal menu in css and it essentially works but it has a flaw that I don't know how to correct.

A few of the menus have sub menus and further sub menus.

For example.
Menu item #3 drops down to a list of 3 choices.
If you pick choice 3 another drop down menu appears with 2 choices.

Now the first submenu above pops out to the right, then the second submenu pops out to the left.

This would not be a problem, however the original pull down menu is still active so now the 2nd sub-menu (going to the left) is immediatly on top of the original sub-menu.

It just looks really weird.
So basically how to I keep forcing the menu to keep cascading to the right?

If you don't understand I will email the html and css file. they are small.

Please help!

:(

You could use z-index: number you want in layers. The z-index means where the element should be in a stack of layers. I don't exactly know what you mean, so I would like to have the file. My email address is zachelfers@netscape.net. I'll see what I can do.

Would be easier if you just uploaded it to a temp site.

A good free web service is at www.geocities.com but you can't have asp files, php, and server side files like those.
