Hello everyone.

I am an html/css/php professional who dabbles a bit in javascript and many other languages. I must say up front however that I absolutely despise javascript. However, it is necessary for the work I do, so I get by.

I have been working for roughly 5 hours trying to find a solution to this. What I do doesnt work, even though I believe it should. Here is my problem:

I have a ‘menu’, based inside of a table. There is one particular td, that when clicked, displays a menu of the users online friends. The friends box is in a div.

The td is name ‘online’ and the friends box is named ‘menufriends’. (with id’s, of course.)

My problem is that I need the friends box to display next to the td. So what when you click the td, it shows up to the right of it instead of below the menu. I have tried all sorts of different methods and cant even get it to change its position.

Can anyone help me right a script that will do this?

@aj_nscApr 03.2009 — Well a CSS professional should know how to do this - position the div where you want it, then set it to display:none. Then set it to display: block when you click your td. [b][i]Where[/i][/b] the div shows up is a matter of CSS, [b][i]How/If[/i][/b] the div shows up is a matter of JS.

If you want to post the actual relevant code (HTML/CSS/JS) then someone could fix it for you. A link to an actual demo page, I think, would be best, but post whatever you can.

Success!
