Hello,

Can anyone help me? I have created an XML menu based on the one on this site. [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/xml\_dropdown\_menu.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/xml_dropdown_menu.htm)

I have taken the background box off as I want just the titles to be shown. So when people roll-over the text the sub-menus appear. My problem is that the roll-over area goes all the way along to the submenu, which is fine if you have the coloured box behind it, but I want it to end with the end of the title else when the user moves their mouse up to go to the submenu it changes the menu.

I hope this makes sense!

Any help would be much appreciated!

Katherine
