Help with "up" style menu

I used a combination of the images style menu and the up style menu. I'm having an issue with a 1px clear space under the start of the menu. I've played around with borders, margins etc. Thanks for any help to try to remove this and make the menu flush at the bottom.

Here's my dev site:

And my menu_data.js code:

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=1;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;


<!---MAIN IMG STYLE - ADDED 4/30 to Original --->
with(AllImagesStyle=new mm_style())
{
styleid=1;
bordercolor="#000000";
borderstyle="solid";
fontstyle="normal";
fontweight="normal";
padding=0;
}

/* Menu styles. This sets the main menu style properties for the second level drop down. */

with(menuStyle=new mm_style()){
styleid=1;
bordercolor="#dbdac6";
borderstyle="solid";
borderwidth=1;
offbgcolor="#dbdac6";
offcolor="#ffffff";
offclass="mnglob";
onbgcolor="#dbdac6";
oncolor="#f5a700";
overfilter="Fade(duration=0.2);Alpha(opacity=95);";

margin=3;
pagecolor="black";
separatorcolor="#dbdac6";
separatorsize=1;
separatorwidth=190;
subimage="/includes/menu/arrow.gif";
subimagepadding=4;
}

Hi,

You have subOffsetTop=1; so the menu, because it's openstyle=up is moving up 1px, set it to 0 and it doesn't show that.

Thank you for the response. I tried setting the _subOffsetTop to 0 in menu_data.js and tested in all browsers (Opera, Safari, IE, Firefox etc.) to no avail. I also confirmed that menu_data.js file was updating on my web server.

Any other ideas?

Hi,

Dang, my fault. The subOffsets do not apply to a horizontal main menu since there's no need to shift the offsets of the 1st level subs - usually. Instead, set the top offset of each sub that opens from the main as follows



This will work.

Thanks!!!
