Superfish Child Drop Downs Falling Off Page

Superfish is a very common menu plugin, so I'm surprised I'm having difficutly rectifying this.

I have a pretty intense menu structure that involves several child menus. So much so, that a lot of them fall off of the page or out of the browser's view when their parent is hovered.

People have suggested applying a right: 0px; property in place of the left: 0px; property in the superfish.css file, but it looks like the JS script is writing it's own CSS properties to the element as in-line styles. In fact, it actually looks like it's measuring the width of the parent menu in order to apply the correct left: value.

The sub-menu's end up looking like this

<ul class="sub-menu" style="left: 16.18181818181818em; 
    float: none; width: 14.5em; display: block; visibility: visible;">

So, I guess what I'm getting at is... what applies these CSS properties if not the CSS file? Even when I apply a specific class for menus I want to 'drop-down' to the right instead of the left, the property gets overridden anyway.

Is there a way to rectify this, or just make it so once I get to the second level of drop downs (when drop downs start going to the left instead of below) they go to the right instead?

I've solved this issue just doing this...

jQuery Superfish Menu Plugin - v1.7.4

just open Superfish.js and find the visibility change to display

example:

visibility: hidden to display : none

visibility: visible to display : block

superfish js edit file

I was just dealing with the same issue. It looks like this "feature" fell off the road map :)

Anyways I found this Superfish Menu text off-screen

it solved it for me but YMMV as always.

if CSS comes from Javascript,

then you may use !important in your style sheet to over ride it.

Add a comment aside your rule in style sheet , so one may remenber or understand the use of left:0!important;/* !important is here to overide style from js' suckerfish menu */ :)
