FYI ***** For a JavaScript menu try: http://struts-menu.sourceforge.net/
For an HTML/CSS approach (not designed for struts) try : http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/dropdowns/ The first link is probably the obvious choice for a Struts application however as it stores the menu names within the JavaScript, ie. oCMenu.makeMenu('ToDoListMenuFile','','File'+cmTopMenuImage+....), it does not work with screen readers etc. The HTML/CSS approach lets you just define the menu as an unordered list, however you have to devise your own method for only displaying the correct ones - ie. req:isUserInRole etc. and make sure your CSS knowledge is up-to-date.
