Hey there, I don't really want to get into the aesthetic issues with this, because a client asked for it, but is it possible to change the stock menu, or perhaps get another menu, that will allow the menu to expand up instead of down?  Kinda like this:

I've got the Wrox DotNetNuke 4 book and it shows a slew of properties, but I don't see anything quite right.  Also, it's been really hard search for this as, "menu" and "up" don't make for compelling search results.

Any suggestions? 

I have gotton a lot of request over the years for features, but I must say this is the first time I got this one... I know you said no comments, but I have to say that one is bizarre.

To answer your question on whether this is possible with the menus from dnn.  The answer is without changing the js files it is not possible in either the solpart or dnnmenu.  Both menus first check to see if their is room to display the menu below for a horizontal menu (to the left for a vertical), if not they will display above (if there is room).

Modifying the script directly to reverse this order is possible, but not recommended, since you would be responsible with each upgrade to remodify the script.
