Hey guys, I'm new here and pretty new to the world of .PHP, although I did manage to successfully install a simple guestbook on a website! (Give me props you guys!) anyways, my question is...

How do I create a cool drop-down menu? Perhaps as seen on http://www.wwe.com or perhaps even http://www.49ers.com. I have a site design that I've designed with the dropdown menu in mind, and want to use the menu I've designed. So basically, how do I make my menu like wwe.com or http://www.49ers.com? I want the borders and all that good stuff that comes with the dropdowns, but I'm unsure on how to do it! Thanks for any help guys!

This is client side scripting. You're probably going to want to use javascript for this.

Where could I go to learn about it? I've found several sites that discuss "dropdowns" but they are ALL for the old fashion kind! Any more info would be cool :-)

Because you are searching for the wrong thing. You probably want to search for dropdown menus in javascript, or javascript menus, or the like.

and once you understand how to make the "old fashion" kind, you can change all the colors, borders, and such to fit your "new age" needs ;)

Bill, thanks for that site! I'm going to test out the program and see how she works, looks to be something I can actually manage to do myself! :-)
