How do I position the subimage to be on top of or over a menu item image.

That is, instead of the subimage (e.g., little arrow) being positioned to the right a menu item image, I want that subimage to be positioned about 10 pixels to the left so it is on top of the subimage.

thanks,
dave

P.S. I spent over an hour searching in the forum and reading the documentation for this answer. I learned a lot, but did not find my answer.

Hi Dave,

The only way I can think for you to do that is to actually take the first image and superimpose the subimage on it, and then call it as the subimage or as the image for that item.

I'll play around with some other things, for example you could remake the image so that it's much wider and color the extra width the same as the bgcolor you have set in the menu then put the image in as a background image using css so you can set it to not repeat and position it where you want it i.e. top left, etc. and then put the subimage in using along with it the subimageposition= parameter in the menu.

Do you have a link to the page and tell me which image you want the subimage to sit over?

Ruth,

Thanks for your quick response.

I thought of the your first suggestion, but I did not want to do that.
Now, I will.

Don't spend any more brain cycles on this.
