The exaple is clearly the structure is the wroted in the main comment
and
i use the structure child inside parent for this reason, to identify
the parent
and the childs.
you can use the firebug tool or the dom inspector in firefox, but it
is easy
the structure is the same that i wrote in the main comment, this
structure
are writed dinamically with createDOM function.
the line after the alert("a") is the line that generates de red-
margined divs
if you cannot understand another thing, only ask it, and i answer.
i leave here a detailed description of the structure.
<div> <!-- this is the main div -->
<ul> <!-- this is the "list" of the items of the menu -->
<li style="float: left"> <!-- this is the menu entry for de
first level menu (parent) -->
<!-- the float option is to use a horizontal menu -->
<!-- the red-margined cloned div have the position and
dimensions of the avobe li element -->
menu 1 <!-- this is the caption parent -->
<div style="position:absolute"> <!-- this is the child div
of menu 1 -->
<ul> <!-- this is the "list" of subitems of the child
menu (vertical) -->
<li> menu 1-1</li> <!-- this is the menu entry of
the child menu -->
</ul>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
maybe can be helpful.
greetings
Felipe.
