Hi, I was wondering what was done to make the pull down menu's do what they do, as seen HERE (http://www.blizzard.com/) on the main page.

Thanks in advance

That's definitely javascript.

or if you'd prefer to control it with css and only have the bare minimum (12 lines) of javascript check out http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish/

This is definitely the best way to go, you have complete control over everything very easily. I tried using a js one and was completely confused :P (could be because i dont know js at all and like to know how everything works) I then found this article from ala (when i didnt know too much css either) and it was very easy and worked great no matter what.

Also, instead of using js that ala gives you, you can use a .htc file that vladdy explains here: http://www.vladdy.net/Demos/iepseudoclassesfix.html I have not implamented it quite yet, but i will be shortly. gl

That's the bare bones example. try editing that page. Use some css styles from www.w3schools.com to style it as you want it.

If you're not happy to learn css then that isn't the solution for you, and you'll have to stick with javascript drop downs.
