Position Layer to Object

Creating a navigation bar. Would like create a drop down menu within a layer.
The absolute positioning does not work for all monitor resolutions. How do I
attach the layer to the mapped object so people can see what is found at that
page? Is there an easier way? Thanks.

I'm not sure if I 100% follow, but you should look at the Snap Layer
extension, it might do exactly what you need:

Use flash.. thats whats its designed for.. dhtml drop down menus get to messy. Flash in that reguard makes them quick, clean, and efficient.

Using Flash for navigation is about the worst thing you can do.

Not good advice :-) What if people don't have flash installed - lost
visitors.

Learn to build these dropdowns yourself.
