(Using DNN 4.9.2) I tweaked a horizontal DNNmenu [NAV] to bump up to the right side and ExpandDepth to "2". For the most part everything is ok. But the submenus want to drop towards the right (lined up on the left of the root item). So in browsers (esp. Non-IE) the page can jerk a bit and suddenly have scrollbars while the sub-menu drops. Any ideas? Can I force the sub to align on the right edge of the root item? (Stay inbounds) How can I fix this? Sorry, I have no public URL to visit. (Not launched yet) Thank you all for your input.

The glib answer is that you'll need to tweak the CSS for the dropdowns. Which menu are you using?

Please forgive me, my skill level is still low. In the skin.xml [NAV] is set to DNNMenuNavigationProvider with ExpandDepth at 2. I've altered the look in my CSS. The parent DIV is text-align: right; & float: right; The menu 'looks' like I want, but the submenu does the jerk and scroll. I think the sub need to drop towards the center of the page? I tried to set .main_dnnmenu_submenu to margin-left:-40px; but it didn't really help. Other people must have created a right aligned menu successfully. But I'm not doing correctly at all. Thank you for pondering my dilemma. I'm going to try and attach an image of the menu. I thank everyone for their patience and expertise.

I haven't looked enough at this to offer concrete suggestions. Have you seen any examples of this behavior in a DotNetNuke site? If you have, then you can take a look at that site's CSS to see how it was done. An alternative approach would be to use a menu such as Snapsis' CSS Nav Menu. One reason that it is attractive is that it permits to to completely rewrite the template for menu display. It's a bit of work, but you should be able to achieve anything that you need with that menu.

You can create a "page" that is a URL rather than an actual page. I played around with this a couple of nights ago, and tried to get it to open in a new window. I couldn't figure out how to get target="_blank" added. Maybe someone knows how to do this for page URLs.

If you are still using the Snapsis product, you can setup a template for your nav. In that template you can specify target=_blank for the correct child/parent levels. You can also use a rudimentary IF/THEN based on some basic criteria (tabname, tabid, etc) to determine if you want it to open in a new browser window.
