Comment on WordPress Nav Menu with Images by SEO Dave.
There was a ‘bug’ in the early Stallion 6.0 CSS menu code that meant the drop down menu didn’t work correctly in earlier version of Internet Explorer (terrible browser).
I rebuilt the CSS and code using the TwentyEleven theme code/CSS as a starting point and it has the navigation menu located on the left rather than the right. The drop down works well with the current CSS and code and left alignment, so kept it on the left.
Have looked at adding an option to have right alignment as well, but I couldn’t get the CSS to do what I wanted, so currently no plans to have a right align option.
