Hello,

I am attempting to modify http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/chrome/index.htm
I want the drop down menu to go up in stead of down.

I am then going to use the "pull up" menu for a "user panel" I created for my online portfolio, which will act as the navigation for my site. http://danieldomski.com/.

Where in the style sheet do I need to make the modification?

I do not even think I need it a list to embed it, instead I want to do something like this:

HTML

<div class="chromestyle" id="chromemenu">
<a href="#" class="button_htmldocs" rel="dropmenu2"></a>
</div>

My CSS Code
CSS


}
a.button_htmldocs {
text-decoration:none;
display:block;
text-align:center;
font-weight: normal;
background-image: url(../images/userpanel_htmdocs_up.png);
margin: 0px;
width: 60px;
height: 62px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
float: none;

}
a.button_htmldocs:hover {
color:#CCCCCC;
background-image: url(../images/userpanel_htmdocs_down.png);
text-decoration: none;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}


Drop Down CSS Code

.chromestyle{
width: 99%;
font-weight: bold;
}

.chromestyle:after{ /*Add margin between menu and rest of content in Firefox*/
content: ".";
display: block;
height: 0;
clear: both;
visibility: hidden;
}

.chromestyle ul{
border: 1px solid #BBB;
width: 100%;
background: url(chromebg.gif) center center repeat-x; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
padding: 4px 0;
margin: 0;
text-align: center; /*set value to "left", "center", or "right"*/
}

.chromestyle ul li{
display: inline;
}

.chromestyle ul li a{
color: #494949;
padding: 4px 7px;
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;
border-right: 1px solid #DADADA;
}

.chromestyle ul li a:hover, .chromestyle ul li a.selected{ /*script dynamically adds a class of "selected" to the current active menu item*/
background: url(chromebg-over.gif) center center repeat-x; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
}

/* ######### Style for Drop Down Menu ######### */

.dropmenudiv{
position:absolute;
border: 1px solid #BBB;
border-bottom-width: 0;
font:normal 12px Verdana;
line-height:18px;
z-index:100;
width: 200px;
visibility: hidden;
top: 0px;
background-color: #CCCCCC;


}


.dropmenudiv a{
width: auto;
display: block;
text-indent: 3px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #333333; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
padding: 2px 0;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
color: black;
}

* html .dropmenudiv a{ /*IE only hack*/
width: 100%;
}

.dropmenudiv a:hover{ /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
background-color: #F0F0F0;
}


... Or would this modification need to be made in the JS?
