Hello again, separate issue so I'm going to make a new ticket. I don't know if this functionality is in place, but is there a way to change the positioning of the menu based on the presence of the control panel? For example, is there a way to set up an alternate id or class for the menu's master div tag when the page is in administrative mode? If not, do you think this might be a feature in the future? I'm using an absolutely positioned menu for SEO reasons. It works very well for the most part until I view the site in administrative mode and then the menu overlaps the control panel. I'm not averse to some creative css or xhtml work, but before I start, I just want to make sure this functionality isn't already available. Thank you!

It's not currently available in the menu, but you could do that by creating inline styles with the following tip: Put Admin Only content in your DotNetNuke Skin

Thank you. :) I made this work by placing an administrative div around the menu and using the specificity of the selectors to change the position. Excellent support! Is there a list anywhere of these conditional statements that can be placed inside skins? I really like the control this offers and would love to know more.

Thanks. Look in that Tips and Tricks forum, there is another thread with a lot more things you can do in your skins, and feel free to ask if there is something you don't see.
