Okay I am making a drop-up menu (drop-down that goes up) and am having major problems with getting the child links to be placed in the correct area.

I have attached the fla so you can see what it is doing. I need to know what I am doing wrong and why it is positioning the child items incorrectly and scattered. I have also attached the xml file if you want to have that as well.

What I am needing it to do is simply take each parent and place the child links direcly under it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
