Trying to get this flyout menu to flyout the opposite way

Hi

I need to get the following flyout menu (left hand side, under event dates) to flyout from bottom to top.

So the last menu item "invite a friend" is opposite the "telegraph" logo, but I just cannot seem to figure out how to do it?

Does anyone have suggestions?, and have I made myself clear enough as to what i need to happen!

Thanks

Adding the following rule:

ul#primary-nav li.menuparent ul {
position: relative;
top: -22.333em;
}

did the trick in Firefox. Adjust value to suit.

Yes, that top value is dependent upon the number of tiems in the menu and yes, that'll be a PITA if you find yourself needing to add or remove items from those flyouts.

It's either that, or getting into JavaScript. (Which isn't hard, or in any way incompatible with the CSS.)

It is in fact a JavaScript hook. I don't recall the relevant property off the top of my head, but I know there's a way to retrieve it. Only in JavaScript, though.


Meanwhile, the process of moving the style data from the CSS to the script is pretty straightforward - probably via ID assignment in the event handler.
