What it the most compatiable Drop-down menu?

[silencer01]

Hi All,

Just wanted to find out your opinion's on what is the most browswer compatitable drop-down menu's for a naviagional system (not form drop-down menu's)?

I have been having a look around and there are a few different options written in either Javascript, DHTML or Flash. Now i have done abit of research and some people claim that Javascript dis-enabled by 30% of web users.

It seems that DHTML is broswer specific and seems to only work on recent browser versions.

So is Flash the only option? I hoping to find another option. Can it be written in purely CSS?

Thanks in advance!

It could be done in pure CSS if IE supported the :hover pseudo-class on more than just <A> elements. :(

IE7 will support it (http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/07/29/445242.aspx)

you can do it but you'll need this file (ccsHover.htc). Download it. It allows IE browsers the benefit of the hover class. You include it in the body tag of your style sheet like so:

body {
behavior: url(csshover.htc);
}/*winIE behavior call */


I used it on this page, http://www.kmdesignworks.com/redesign/

take a look at the source code
