need some help with a simple dropdown menu

[stevemtno]

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but here goes...

I need to create a simple dropdown menu. I've got the main nav working, I just need to get the subnav to appear.

Currently, if you hover over an item in the nav, the image will change from black & red to red & black. What I need to do now is have a subnav appear (I have another image - 1000px wide- that I'm planning to use as a background image) below it with the appropriate subnav items on it.

I'm guessing I need to have some javascript in here, but I really don't know where to begin.

If anyone can give me some basic code to start with, I would greatly appreciate it.

Here's a link to the page in progress:

Hi

That is usually called DHTML menu, not dropdown menu.

See Superfish, nav-bar style.

( No idea what you want to do with that 1000 px wide image, but I would throw it out. )

Hi,

I'll look into Superfish. As for the 1000px image - it's going to be the background for the subnav (as I mentioned in the original msg). I can't 'throw it out'..

Thanks,
