Issue with Vertical position of the popupmenu in <span>

Hi,
We have a problem with the vertical alignment of the popup menu. The pop up menu is displayed a few levels below the actual position.
Our menu is displayed on click of an image which is placed inside <span> tags.
However, if placed inside <tr><td> tags instead of span, it starts appearing at the correct position. Its difficult for us to change our UI fully from <span> tags to <td > tags.
Is there a way to correctly position the menu's using the <span> tag itself?

Hi,

They are going to need to see the page in order to figure a solution.

You can pass positional offsets to the popup() method.
Code:
popup(menuName, imageName, topOffset, leftOffset)

So, when you call popup() in one of your spans, you could set a negative topOffset to bump the menu back up as needed.

Hope that helps,

Kevin
