Hi guys,

I have a row of information across the top of the page that includes some debug text, login name, the top menu item, and the login status. I want to keep everything in that order from left to right. However, the RadMenu always places itself on the end at the right.

The menu was showing up on the extreme left (much worse!) before I found this trick:

        div.RadMenu_Web20
        {
            float: right;
        }

How do I get the menu to stay in the correct order? The relevant markup is included below.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi Ken Cox,

As I understand you do not use the embedded skins of the RadMenu control.
Let me suggest you nest the "Literal1" and "lblLoginName" in a "div" tag floated to the left and override the .RadMenu css style in this manner:

<head runat="server">

<title></title>

<style type="text/css">

div.RadMenu

{

float: left;

white-space: nowrap;

}

</style>

</head>

<body>

<form id="form1" runat="server">

<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">

</telerik:RadScriptManager>

<div>

<div class="utilitylinks">

<div style="float: left;">

<asp:Literal ID="Literal1" runat="server"

Text="some debug text"></asp:Literal>

<asp:Label EnableViewState="true" ID="lblLoginName"

Text="some username" runat="server"></asp:Label>

</div

>

            <%--ForeColor="White" --%>

<telerik:RadMenu ID="mnuSettings" runat="server"

CssClass="utilitylinks" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false">

<Items>
