I use nested tables, css positioning and hide
to give an easy dropdown menu system. Trying to
add a second level table for submenus indicates
bad positioning in gecko  which does not occur
in Opera or MSIE. Trying for browser unsniffed
 solution

Reproducible: Always

1. visit the url
2. drop the first menu
3. rollover the update... item

Actual Results:  
submenu opens in wrong spot

Expected Results:  
should open to right of item as it does in opera.
