 Now, I decided to add it to the next site to use just the same. It works,
 but the order is off and it's appearing underneath everything else on the
 page. I can't figure out why. At first I thought it might be the order of
 the css elements but that's not it.

 Can anyone take a guess why this is happening?

2008-11-05 Thread FastNOC


OK hopefull this is the last question.

I need this to be smaller. the script takes up the whole width because the
css specifies 100%. So i shortened it to 980, the width of my page. But I
want it centered. it aligns left. text-align:center centeres the text within
the div, not the whole panel, and margin-right:auto;margin-left:auto does
nothing.

Any thought on how to center this?

My guess is it's an absolutely positioned element, which won't respond well
to auto margins.

If this is the case, one option would be to measure the width of the window
at the time of drop-down, calculate and set the css left appropriately.

If it is a static/relatively positioned element, and auto margin isn't
working, I'm not sure what the problem might be.
