I'm sure it could be scripted. Depending on the CSS that is in effect before your script runs, you might wrap the contents of each li in a div element, get the width of the div, then apply that width to the parent li. You would still need to ensure that the menu still degrades gracefully without the script though. Joel.
[jQuery] Re: superfish variable width
thx. I'll look into that that some times. My co-worker went with : http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/variable_dl.html But its not a satisfiying code. Since I'm trying to push suckerfish (superfish) as our default menu system, I'd love to get around that issue.
