Anylink drop down - 2 different heights on same page?

[roblynch]

1) Script Title: AnyLink Drop Down Menu

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...pmenuindex.htm

3) Describe problem: I'm a complete novice here, so I'm hoping for some helpful advice from someone a lot cleverer than me!

I'm using the anylink drop down menu, and in the code I've added a "+3" to the following line:

dropmenuobj.style.top=dropmenuobj.y-clearbrowseredge(obj, "bottomedge")+obj.offsetHeight+3+"px"

so that the dropdown appears a few pixels below my link/image. Trouble is, I'd like to have another link on my page where the menu appears above this second image link. I can amend the line of code to say -165 instead of +3 but this (obviously) changes every link.

I realise that this may be too difficult to do (and therefore may not be answered!), but if anyone knows how this can be done I'd appreciate any help

Actually, in this case, it's fairly simple to do. First, replace the original dropdownmenu() inside the script with the below version instead:

function dropdownmenu(obj, e, menucontents, menuwidth, offset){
if (window.event) event.cancelBubble=true
else if (e.stopPropagation) e.stopPropagation()
clearhidemenu()
dropmenuobj=document.getElementById? document.getElementById("dropmenudiv") : dropmenudiv
populatemenu(menucontents)

if (ie4||ns6){
showhide(dropmenuobj.style, e, "visible", "hidden", menuwidth)
dropmenuobj.x=getposOffset(obj, "left")
dropmenuobj.y=getposOffset(obj, "top")
dropmenuobj.style.left=dropmenuobj.x-clearbrowseredge(obj, "rightedge")+"px"
dropmenuobj.style.top=dropmenuobj.y-clearbrowseredge(obj, "bottomedge")+(offset||0)+obj.offsetHeight+"px"
}

The above adds a new "offset" parameter you can use in your HTML, for example:

<a href="default.htm" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu1, '150px', -5)" onMouseout="delayhidemenu()">Web Design</a>
