Hi All,

Is it possible to add a custom menu bar similar to the one on Microsoft's
home page? Namely, if the "topic" has an sub-items, then a drop-down menu
appears, when the user hovers the mouse over the item, if not it just grows
a bit. The one on Microsoft's home page is 4 items with the "Subscribe"
acting as a drop down. Is this possible with Microsoft FrontPage 2002? If
so, then how? I looked at the "Insert : Web Components : Link bar" options,
but that does not really produce a custom menu bar. Thanks in advance,

Thanks in advance,

Click to expand...

There's nothing build into FP2002 that does this. You must
either write some fancy JavaScript and HTML code or obtain
a software package that write such code for you.

If you search Yahoo for "javascript dhtml menus" you'll
find thousands of resoruces.
