Hi folks.

I have a nav bar with children unordered lists nested under the main navbar items. My problem is on the inner list, when I position absolute, the inner list is centered to the page, and when I position relative, it is positioning inline with the parent list.

I'm trying to get the first child item to line up directly under it's parent.

/*  OUTER LIST STYLING  */

div#navbar2 {

    position:relative;
    width: 100%;
    border-top: solid #000 1px;
    border-bottom: solid #546F8B 1px;
    background-color: #546F8B;
}

div#navbar2 ul#navbar {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 10px 0;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 16px;
    letter-spacing:1px;
    color: #FFF;
    white-space: nowrap;

}

div#navbar2 ul#navbar li {
    margin: 0 2px;
    list-style-type: none;
    display: inline;
}


div#navbar2 li a {
   text-decoration: none;
   color: #fff;
   padding: 10px 10px;
}

div#navbar2 li a:link {
    color: #FFF:
}

div#navbar2 li a:visited {
    color: #ffffff;
}

div#navbar2 li a:hover {
    color: #000;
    background-color: #FDFFC9;
}

/*   INNER LIST STYLING   */

div#navbar2 ul#navbar li ul.innerlist{
    display: none; 
    color:#000;

}
div#navbar2 ul#navbar li ul.innerlist li{
    color:#000;
}


div#navbar2 ul#navbar li:hover ul.innerlist {
    position: absolute;
    display: inline;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    margin: 40px 0 0px 0px;
    padding: 0px; 
    color:#000;
    }

div#navbar2 li.innerlist a {
   text-decoration: none;
   color: #000;
    padding: 10px 10px;
}

div#navbar2 li.innerlist a:link {
    color: #000:
}

div#navbar2 li.innerlist a:visited {
    color: #000;
}

div#navbar2 li.innerlist a:hover {

    color: #000;
    background-color: #FDFFC9;
}

And my html:

<div id="navbar2">

<ul id="navbar">
  <li id="index"><a href="index.php">About Rattletree</a></li>
  <li id="upcomingshows"><a href="upcomingshows.php">Calendar</a></li>
  <li id="booking"><a href="booking.php">Contact</a>
            <ul class="innerlist">
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">Booking</a></li>
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">press</a></li>
            </ul>
  </li>
  <li id="instruments"><a href="instruments.php">The Band</a>
            <ul class="innerlist">
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">The Instruments</a></li>
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">The Players</a></li>
            </ul>
  </li>
  <li id="classes"><a href="classes.php">Sights &amp; Sounds</a>
            <ul class="innerlist">
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">Listen</a></li>
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">photos</a></li>
                <li class="innerlist"><a href="#">video</a></li>
            </ul>
  </li>
  <li id"classes"><a href="classes.php">Workshops &amp; Classes</a></li>


</ul>
</div>

Thanks for any help!
