I'm currently making a website with Google Page Creator, and I was wondering how to make a menubar, you know under the title that when you slick or hover on one of the buttons a menu comes down? I also was wondering if you could make submenus?

An examle of what I want is on the doubleclick page:http://www.doubleclick.com/us/

Please help or point me in the right direction

I'm not sure about implementing this in Google Page Creator, but this is a really neat CSS approach to creating menus like those:

It doesn't take much work to get that to display horizontally rather than vertically. (And you only need JavaScript for IE6 and below – it's pure CSS in other browsers.)

Most other solutions you'll find online require quite a bit of JavaScript and DHTML, so this is much lighter than those.

Thank you Tony, this should help me but I'm no CSS editor ;-) I forgot to metion I have Images done up in PS which I want the submenu's to pop down from. Am I being to ambitious?

It's certainly possible. If you email me the images and text for each drop down, I'll see what I can do for you... but I can't promise when I'll be able to have something for you.

That's great, just let me get my act together. I only have 2 out of 4 images made at present but another day or two should be enough. Thanks Again.
