Drop Line Menus

Professional dropline #5

This Dropline menu uses hover instead of click to open (and keep) open a sub menu. With the top level and the dropline centered within the containing div. Using hovers instead of click will allow the top levels to have links.

Just hover over a top level item to drop down the associated sub line. The top level will stay black to show that it has been selected. Hover the same item to close the sub list or a different top level item to close the current sub level and open a new one. 'Home' and 'Privacy policy' do not have sub levels.

The ability to have a selected top level open on page entry is included, which is demonstrated in this menu where 'Sales' is selected on page entry (demo).

Tested in IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari (PC). Visit stunicholls.com where you find more than 30 great menu scripts.
