Hi Iceberg - Thanks for this effort.
I just looked, and I would like to see the "onmouseover" removed - this is something that should not be in the layout, but generated by the applicaiton. The default behavior can be set in the css; have a look at the source to http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/menus/demo.html for how that can be accomplished. You can also see how he's accomplished a relative submenu thru pure CSS there too (so the function perhaps doesn't need to exist to generate the menus). You can see example of showing (and positioning) images w.r.t. menus in http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo2.html I think that the menus / layout we want to achieve would push it all into css, so that it would be easily modified by the application at runtime, and involve minimum code to "setup". I don't know CSS any either, but just got a few books and have been reading nights, so I am starting to get some concrete ideas on this. Hope you find the code in these links helpful.
