Drop Down Menus

Drop Down Menus

am 08.04.2008 22:16:12 von JohnW-Mpls

I've been coding HTML with some css for years and now I'd like to
add Drop Down Menus at one site (hover on a title, have a menu
appear below of links to other places).

I would welcome suggestions of where I can read the fundamental
coding for this - including some simple examples.

My advice, don't. DHTML means most likely 10-year-old JavaScript
solutions. Very bad idea to base your site navigation on.

Anyway looks like their site is not up.

$ wget http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/
--12:14:09-- http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/
=> `index.html.1'

Appears that they were down. But my point still stands. Most of their
menu systems fail completely if JavaScript is unavailable. Very, very
bad practice for a website. Cool last millennium--bad in this millennium.
