New Kid on the Block..

Help! I'm a relatively new user of HTML (previous form has been copy and paste format) and cannot remember how to do something! (Change of location - information no longer available)

I would like to be able to move my mouse over a piece of text which would then drop down a list (like menu items - links).

Can anyone please offer me a simple example that I can practice with?

Many thanks!

Heres a site that explains how to do it, provides an example and all the source code needed.

Good luck

Thanks Glenn!

That's pretty much what I am after, however - I have been pulling my hair out trying to change the position to a Vertical List! I understand nothing about JavaScript (kinda useful I suppose, eh?)

Any ideas on how to do this - or other places to look? I don't mind if you have to 'click' the text to show the drop-down - ANYTHING will do!!

Cheers
NKA

Hi mate,

Check out

The layout of the code is a bit of a mess but it isn't my script, so don't blame me.. LOL

Hope this helps Wullie

Thanks Wullie - This seems to be more in line with what I am looking for!

Thanks also to Glenn - I'm still playing with the horizontal menus!! ;-)

Actually what wullie posted was pretty cool, and the source code looks pretty organized to me.
