By default, a menus want to be vertical. The 12th element of a menu array can override this behavior. From the comment for the 12th element, found in the downloadable menu_array.js files...
Quote:
// Horizontal Menu - Tells the menu to become horizontal instead of top to bottom style (1=on/0=off)

So, setting the 12th element of your menu array to 1 specifically causes the menu to be horizintal! If you want it to be vertical, leave the 12th element unset, or set it to 0.

Hope that helps,

Kevin
