currently I am programming a dynamic menu. Right the menu's position is 
relative to the window boarder. Can any expert tell me how to modify the 
code to put the menu position relative to a table cell? I want to put the 
whole menu into a table cell, which might let me control its position 
more easier when people resize the browser.

The code is below:

Thanks a lot!!
