  I read that wrong, what I proposed shifts the 1st level subs to the left,
 to get second level subs to show on left side instead of right, assign some
 class like show_left to second tier of subs

 if ($(this ).hasClass(show_left)) {
 $(this).css(left, -10em);// if using supersubs,
 or variable width UL's have to test parent UL for width and use that value
 instead of  -10em

 }

 I now face an issue where items close to the right hand side of the screen
 bleed off with multiple columns. I wonder how I can force the last few
 elements in the UL to have the multi-columns open to the left? Any tips?

  I took a peek at supersubs.js and my question is this:
 
  Is it just a matter of adding an extra div tag between ul's and styling
 in a
  manner similar to the link below?

  is how to create the second column. Any examples are greatly
 appreciated.

 HAHAHA... I think you forgot your disclaimer. :p  Karl is a co-author

 Nonetheless, Learning jQuery 1.3 would be a great choice. :)

 Busted! I figured he'd make the connection, but it's probably a good idea
 to add a disclaimer anyway. :)

 Alex, for what it's worth, I've read through jQuery in Action, and I think
 it's a terrific book, too.

Check your original page CSS carefully. I have assisted clients with the
same problem and found that improper use of the position:relative tag on
containing and following div tags can cause this to render incorrectly.

 Hello:

 I can't get a second row of superfish menu to display correctly in IE.  In
 IE the top menu displays underneath the second menu, even after fiddling
 with div z-indexes and .supefish.css.  I also tried creating a seperate css
 file for the second menu, but renaming the classes to say, .sf-gray, does
 not work in IE again.

 Also, can I adjust the drop downs so the long side is to the left, for when
 the menu div is set to the right:0px   so it doesn't add a horizontall
 scrollbar to the browser?



 Thanks
