Can you COmbine Rollovers with Dropdowns
I have used 2 images in DW MX to make them rollover each other in HTML. But I really need to have when the user rollover over them, they generate a drop down menu. How can I do that, is that possible? To explain better may be I should ask "can a rollover image have a drop down menu as well" I tried some menus I got from DynamicDrive.com, but they would never work. Unfortunately for me to get rid of the rollovers would cause a lot of trouble. Please some one advise me? Thanks.

Yes it is possible, it requires javascript to do that. But right now I don't have my book on hand. So tomarrow, I well take a look though it and help you out a little bit more.

not entirely true.. if you know your way around css pretty well anyway.

It is very common for people to turn to js as a "simple" fix, but as most things quoted as being simple, it is hardly ever simple. In this day and age in web design, you should be using clean XHTML markup.

A noticeable ammount of people that are web savvy have javascript turned off in their browsers, so you can't rely on javascript for your viewers to navigate your site.

I'm not trying to disuade you from using javascript / DHTML for your navigation, there are lots of free scripts at Dynamic Drive (Menus & Navigation). But i would suggest using a modified version of SantaKlauss' Pure CSS ToolTips. Try modifying the offset position ( left: 0px; top: 0px; ) and Hover state of the "tool-tip" ( display: inline; ) so it stays visible upon roll-over.

I hope that helped somewhat, if not, then feel free to flame me.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with clean XHTML markup. I looked thru the scripts at Dynamic drive but they would not work with the current js I have used.

Would you please show me by example on how I can fix my problem. Thanks!
