Thanks for the advice. I'd already decided that the one one Suckerfish suited me better. Non-compliant browers would just see a nested list, which is good for me.

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.

Can anybody recommend a tutorial and/or some examples of a standards-compliant menu with a vertical orientation?
Specifically, I need something that allows the user to see the
second-level options when you either click or mouseover the main
menu.

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/
