If i try it in the navbar i either get nothing, or i get something that moves my formatting around... OR it works but the text inside the forum jump becomes HUGE and there is a weird line through it.

Ive got it to work in the small space under the navbar.... not perfect but its a start.

Each menu/link in the navbar is in a table cell. Here's the relevant part of the navbar template, where it shows a table, and each link is in a table cell.

<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" style="border-top-width:0px">

	</if>

<!-- / nav buttons bar -->

The navbar forumjump menu, when automaically displaying, outputs the menu where the template hooks are ($template_hook[navbar_buttons_left] or $template_hook[navbar_buttons_right] depending on your settings), and the menu is wrapped in <td> tags so that it is put inside a table cell. When autodisplay is off, the menu is not inside <td> tags, since people often want to put it elsewhere, in the header or somewhere else.

If you want to put the menu in the navbar without using the template hooks, just do this:

<td class="vbmenu_control">$forumjumpmenu</td>

then at the bottom of the template put this:
