Rearranging {bulletmenu} structure

[Utter]

Just need a bit of help reordering the way bulletmenu creates the menu structure.

I'm currently building a site in which I had created the method that bulletmenu uses but in straight CSS. So there was a graphic that looked like a menu item that when hovered over produced a full menu that dropped from it's right side.

This is how bulletmenu works but using a REAL menu item (the parent article) as the first element and the dropping the menu to its right. However, this is now creating a duplicate effect where the parent item (1st thing in menu) drops off the side of the graphic button and then the children articles drop off the side of the parent so tha you get

[graphic][parent][child]

instead of

[graphic][parent]
            [child#1]
            [child#2]

etc.

Can anyone tell me what I need to tweak in bulletmenu to change this or will I have to redesign the thing?


Thanks in advance.
