you sound like you don't know javascript/html overly well. Are you sure you need a drop down menu. Mabye consider replacing it with regular HTML?

It will cause you alot less pain.

i can create simple d.dwn menus using html - but they aren't the kind that i'm aiming to create y'know.. they are like menu boxes but are soo simplex - not prettyfulllll!~!!

wait- i was thinkin that you meant DW as in don't worry
my bad

the code is

<img src="website/images/menu_side.gif" width="190" height="255" onMouseOver="MM_showHideLayers('Layer1','','show')" onMouseOut="MM_showHideLayers('Layer1','','hide')">

umm - i dont know if that'll show though .. i dont know how to make html code show up *grr*

What about the 'MM_showHideLayers' function?

That's the guts of it.


(If you are like ~ wtf?! ~ post a link or attach the files)

All that code does is show an image on mouseover?

I don't see anything to do with a menu :S
