Thanks. Got a couple more (1) answers as well. As I told one of those responders, you sit there late at night trying this, that, and the other thing, and you begin to wonder if it's possible...
In point of fact, browser support isn't an issue in this case. When you're on the "target" set of pages, the submenu will be displayed all the time. So for older browsers (or mobile devices where "hover" is an issue) they will have to click "target", get to the "target" home page, and the submenu will be there. They can then click away. And user preferences will allow people to set their default page for when they choose "target", so that will work just fine. I just wanted newer browsers to be able to get there in the one motion. Thanks everyone, I'll keep plugging away.
