How do you do a pop up menu

In websites that have a menu bar of links, I'm curious as to how they make a new menu pop up when you mouse over the first link. I'm familure with the javascript command "onmouseover", just not sure what to use for the pop up. Thanks for the help.

Oh believe me, Google is a life saver. I just wasn't sure if I was searching for the right key word with pop up menu. I didn't really find anything on my searchs. So would I use DHTML?

did you click the link? I checked the first two results and both seemed to have decent popup menus. :?

Ahhh, "I see" says the blind man. Sometimes the obvious is harder for me to see. I found that the second link allows you to copy and paste the code. I guess that will work. Thanks.

that pop-it menu is great. if you can tell me how to position the menu so that it falls about 5px below the pointer, and more to the left (so that the menu itself is center to the pointer)...feel free to let me know :)
