As the author suggested, positioning within table cells is not recommended, but to have your menu in a predictable position on the page is unreasonable to overlook. The absolute positioning goes dooda when resizing; placing the menu within tables didn't work for me and spent a lot, and I mean a lot, of time trying to get this to work. However, if I could get this to work, the potential for configuration is excellent. Hopefully, future versions will work and allow me to position centre, taking into account the browser size so that the offset can be changed dynamically, keeping my menu in the right place.
