I'm new to Java... and I downloaded the script for the cascading menu... following the instructions i.e. some of the script into the head tag and some of the script into the body... all it yielded was text in the html doc. Can anyone out there help me?
Thank you

Not unless we see some code/know which menu you are talking about...

Thank you for your reply... here is the code.

<!-- THREE STEPS TO INSTALL CASCADE MENU:

1. Copy the coding into the HEAD of your HTML document
2. Add the onLoad event handler into the BODY tag
3. Put the last coding into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Paste this code into the HEAD of your HTML document -->

<HEAD>

<!-- This script and many more are available free online at -->
<!-- The JavaScript Source!! http://javascript.internet.com -->
<!-- Original: Arun kumar (n_arunk@hotmail.com) -->

<link href="CascadeMenu.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script language="javascript" src="CascadeMenu.js">
</script>
</HEAD>

<!-- STEP TWO: Insert the onLoad event handler into your BODY tag -->

<BODY OnLoad="InitMenu()" Onclick="HideMenu(menuBar)" ID="Bdy" bgColor=aliceblue>

<!-- STEP THREE: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<font color="#800080"><b>Sample Menu</b></font></p>

Did you download CascadeMenu.css and CascadeMenu.js from the site? If not, you need those...

I did. My experiece with html is basic... I started writing code before the advent of css. Won't a cascading style sheet effect all of the pages in the web site...?

Thanks for your time and help. Notwithstanding the CSS, I reloaded the code and I guess I got all of the parts right this time. Still the menu was supposed to be a horizonal menu... and it wanted to display in a verticle format. Not knowing what to do I wrote up <tr></tr><td></td> (td's 7 times) and pasted in the code in each <td>... that seemed to work...
