# CSS Help

 * Hello Everyone,
 * I am still brushing up on my css skills, and am stumped on this one and would
   really appreciate some help.
 * My sub-menu on the site I am developing is too low (under the What We Do), and
   it is making it difficult to select any of the drop-downs. Because of this, I
   need to move it up a bit.
 * I feel like I have changed every margin/padding/top possible in the #horiz_m .
   slidemenu css options, but unfortunately, nothing has seemed to work.
 * If anyone can help me pinpoint EXACTLY what I need to change I would be so appreciative!
 * Thanks so much!
    Danielle

 * This should work for you:
 * `ul.sub-menu {
    top: 44px; // adjust this as needed, but I think this works }

 * Sorry about that:
 *     ```
       ul.sub-menu {
       top: 44px; // adjust this as needed, but I think this works
       }
       ```

 * Hello again,
 * I tried that but it didn’t seem to make a difference… This one is stumping me
   big time.

 * That’s odd, it works when I select the element in firebug.

 * I messed with the numbers (bigger and smaller), but nothing I did changed the
   sub-menu’s position. I checked in a few browsers too.

 * Ok, found it.
 *     ```
       #horiz_m .slidemenu ul li ul {
          top: 44px !important; // adding the !important overrides other styles
       }
       ```
   
 * What’s happening is, you have some sort of JavaScript controlling the ul.sub-
   menu style on load. Therefore, there is no way to override this inline style 
   via external stylsheet, **unless** you use !important.
