You can do this one of three ways:
- The first been you would need to make the menu static within the theme itself so you have full control over all the anchor links and classes
- In the menu manager you could assign a custom class to the anchor link and then bind jQuery events to the anchor links so they correspond to a specific menu of your choice
- Create a plugin that allows you to set an option that allows specific menus to become children of the parent as a separate menu still but only accessible by hovering over a menu item that has been assigned a submenu
Hope that helps a bit more.
