Creating a drop down menu

[Jon Nystrom]

I am a novice to dreamweaver so bear with me. I was under the impression
that dreamweaver would allow me to create some cool drop down menus. I am
looking to create something like windows where you click on a + and the menu
appears below the +. I see that dreamweaver allows simple menu's with go
buttons but not like I want. Someone told me that the menu's I want to
create use flash. I don't have a clue how to use this in dreamweaver. The
documentation isn't very clear. Does someone have a simple html that was
created in dreamweaver that can do what I want it to do? Maybe explain how
it is done in dreamweaver. I really appreciate the help. These menu's have
cost me many hours of sleep. Im tired....

Thanks...

Dear Jon

Dreamweaver is a Wysiwyg-Editor. With other words, it works as a "Notepad"
where you generate Html-code, but, and that is the difference to a simple
texteditor, you can also design your page visually. Now if you're planning
to make a dynamicmenu, you have to use javascript (in a html-page), or you
can design your menu in flash. But both options (if the menu has to be
dynamic, and your description sort of calls for this sort of menu) require a
lot of programming, in javascript or in actionscript (flash). You'll find a
dynamic flash menu at:

For javascriptversions go to:

other sites on the net with examples...)

Dear Jon

Have a look at a site I worked on at http://www.rorc.org.
This site uses javascript to produce drop down menus.
