I need to set a left alignment for 1 or 2 sub menu only. Is it possible?
My DHTML menu shows all submenu with right alignment.
I need to change the alignment as I have in the page a menu select and 1 sub menu shown is covered by this select menu.
You can set the text alignment of any submenu in the 9th element of the menu's array: "left", "right", or "center".
Another alternative would be to hide the select box (or the entire form) when the overlapping menu opens.
Hope that helps,

Dear Kevin,
thanks for yr reply.
I don't need to set the text alignment, but the submenu alignment. As you can see, on mouse over all submenu appear on the right. Is it possible to set 1 or 2 submenu on the left? I need it because 1 sub menu is covered by a dropdown menu.
Can you post a URL so we can see what's happening? Easier for us to help that way.
To go a little further on Kevin's thought...

If I understand what you're saying (a part of your form is being covered by some of the menu), you can set a <div name="daniele" id="daniele"> around your form (or, I think, just the part that's in trouble), then enter that name into "// ID of the div you want to hide on MouseOver (useful for hiding form elements)". Now when a menu drops over that <div> area it will actually hide, leaving the menu in the clear.
The div hiding John explained is a good approach when faced with pesky form elements. If you decide you just want to move a submenu over, you can specify an offset in the menu array's 3rd element (Menu Left), like so:
Include the quotes. The above example would move the menu 50 px to the left of where it would normall open. Use a positive value to move the menu to the right.
