Yes you can use it as a menu for a website. A pure flash menu would be
perhaps lighter, but I don't know by how much. For the navigation you have
to use flash.net.navigateToURL().
The Flax app must have the height of the highest opened menu otherwise it
will be truncated. But you can make the background of the app transparent
(set the alphas to 0) and put it in a div on the top of the html page. For
the div, use absolute positioning and give it the highest z-index. Use
javascript to embed the app, use 'transparent' for the 'wmode' parameter and
give a html-only replacement for the menu (even if it's a simple list).

Thanks for the tip. Can this be used to display a menu for website
navigation? I guess I'd need a NavigateToUrl tag to allow menu item
links to navigate the xhtml web page. In other words, I'm wanting the
Flex application to only be for the menu not a part of a complete site
done in Flex. Can this be done?
Also, will the Flex application need to have the height equivalent to
the highest opened menu? Or is there a way to have the Flex
application - the menu - hover over the content on the xhtml web page
transparently?

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone could share some tutorials on how to
create a horizontal menu with drop-down sub-menus. Please let me know
if you can think of any good examples with tutorials/script examples
for learning, etc.
Thanks,
Bruce
