Re: [WSG] Casual Friday[Drop-Down Menus]

I am with you on that. I don't feel that dropdowns are as user friendly as they could be. I think people should be directed to the information they are using by providing descriptive top level navigation, contextual linking and logical 2nd level navigation within the context of the related main subsection. Site maps and search utilities are also a good way to ensure that people will get to the info or goal.
