I always use css for drop-down menus, I don't recommend any other way unless they need to do something icky like roll or fade in and out.

Although you can use some css to accomplish that too I think.

Nothing, I do enjoy it

It's just tedious when you've done it several times before.
PS: It wasn't a standard drop-down, it was a pull-up tree menu like the windows start menu. It doesn't show up without JS on since there's another way to navigate the app anyway, but with JS on, it uses far less bandwidth than a CSS one would since it's all DOM-trickery. Not actually sure this particular menu would work in all browsers with CSS alone.
