So for example on your site you what a drop down menu for photos or for mask? Correct?

I am just trying to get an idea of where you what one or more :) 		stu120404 (268)
285928 2004-10-29 05:48:00 also How do you make your buttons on your site? eg what Program do you use? stu120404 (268)
285929 2004-10-29 06:02:00 I don't use a program for buttons. You can get some pretty good button effects using image mapping (can take a while to load on a slow connection), but the main methods I use is CSS. You can use something like the following in your stylesheet:
#button1 a{
border: 3px outset #CC0000;
color: #FF0000;
width: 80px;
height: 20px;
}

#button1 a:hover{
border: 3px inset #CC000;
color: #CC0000;
}



Then use this in the HTML code to use the button:
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" id="text/css" href="stylesheet.css" />
</head>
<body>
stuff goes here
<div id="button1"><a href="ButtonTarget.html">
Click Me
</div>
</body>
</html>


For a sample of these bussons, go to http://pcfix.co.nr - I use them on this site.

Hope this helps,

285931 2004-10-29 06:18:00 Use the best free code for a dynamic dropdwon menu there is from
It can be used as a side or horizontal menu & is easy to configure colours, sizes etc.
Best of all no javascript involved
A brilliant menu

Doesn't seem to work in Firefox for me either. 		whtafo (156)
285933 2004-10-29 06:35:00 oops!! sorry about that I was thinking of another menu.
Although this one is excellent I have another one with no javascript (uses DHTML) that looks exactly the same and is fully customisable & also adjusts automatically to users screen size & resolution
I'll find it & post link, If I can't find the original I'll post my modified version.
Sorry again, I should have checked before opening my trap 		45South (4769)
285934 2004-10-29 06:45:00 Incidentally ours were built wih DHtml Menu Builder:
software.xfx.net

No linky to our site though. 		whtafo (156)
285935 2004-11-03 05:18:00 I'm going to sound like a nube, but I still can't quite get my head around these pull down menu or Jump menu.
I managed to use the jump menu in dream weaver3 but I find them a bit impersonal.
I like the way this one works on DPR.
