Hi, The problem with these drop-down menus is that they rely on Javascript for cross-browser compatibility. http://www.easymenu.co.uk/ is a classic example. Try disabling JavaScript in Firefox and finding the pages under the navigation item "About us". For example "contact us" takes you to http://www.easymenu.co.uk/contactus.asp but there is no way to get there from the homepage without JavaScript. Be careful to consider this when designing sites that use this 'standards-compliant' method.

Check out AListApart (ALA) for some excellent resources in this area! www.alistapart.com I can't find the vertical one I'm sure I've seen it being mentioned there (anyone else remember?). Otherwise, try EasyMenu http://www.easymenu.co.uk/ Hoep this helps, Chris. ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ****************************************************** ********************************************************************** This message is intended for the addressee named and may contain privileged information or confidential information or both.
