I have a horizontal xml drop down menu that is called into a flash page. I need to make the horizontal menu so it is vertical. I found some code that is supposed to make the menu vertical but it did not work. What it did was make the menu vertical but each main menu item was not showing. Everything was under the main menu item links. I tried editing it and it still did not work. Can anyone tell me how to take this horizontal drop down menu and make it vertical?

Here is the code that is supposed to make this menu vertical.


<config>
<options>
<mainmenu style="vertical" />
</options>
<menu name="Whats New" action="getComponent" variables="home.swf,http://armyofanyone.com/flash/transitions/1.swf">
<item name="News" action="getComponent" variables="whats_new.swf,http://domain.com/flash/transitions/1.swf"/>
</config>

Here is the code for the horizontal menu.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<menu name="links">
<menu name="Whats New" action="getComponent" variables="home.swf,http://armyofanyone.com/flash/transitions/1.swf">
