thanks rthrash and dev_cw,
rthrash, your solution sounds useful, but it redirects the Parent to the first Child. I don’t want the Parent to direct anywhere at all. This is what I want: if you click on the Parent, nothing happens. Intuition will tell the user he must click on one of the dropdown items.
dev_cw, actually, I only need to do it with one Parent. It is nice how to do it both ways, though, so thank you very much!
