Are you saying you want the submenus to be immediately below the main menu? I'm not real good with diagrams, nor hand eye coordinations 
so I'm not sure what it is the arrows are trying to depict. Or are you saying you want the words on the main menu to be more or less centered in the drop width? You can use align="center"; in your menu definition for the main menu and it will put the words in the center of each item. If you mean you want the submenu to be immediately below the main, then set the subOffsetTop=0 and it should open immediately below the main menu. If you want the submenus to be the same width as the main menu item you have to set the main menu item width and then the submenu width.

What I have is this.
My main menu is horizontal. When you put the mouse over the selections, it opens up vertical submenus. The vertical submenus have their own submenus. What I need is the 1st and 2nd level submenus to be aligned equally to the top. Normally, the top part of the second level submenu is aligned to the same level as the selection that opens up the submenu
Well, I think you could probably use the offset= parameter to do that, but you'd have to set it for each submenu based on the height of the submenu off which it opened, and what happens if someone has really big text set? I think that would changed the height of the item. However, try this. Figure out the height of the submenu off which the next level opens, let's say it's 100px, in the second level submenu put top="offset=-100px"; that should open it 100px up from where it would normally open. There may be better solutions.
There is this pageabout methods and functions which might help if you know how to do any of that. I know it has things about getting and setting positions.
