Any recommendations for dropdown menu product?

[Sam Bryan]

I'd like to redo a site using dropdown menus in FP 2003.

When I go to FP help for "dropfown menus" there are a couple of 3rd party companies referenced. (for DHTML menus). I see there are a lot of companies that provide software to generate code for DHTML menus.

I'd like for it to be a FP add-in that could hyperlink to my FP pages by clicking on them the way other hyperlinks are done with FP and I'd like to have at least 3 levels of nesting and would prefer some control over appearance (color, font, etc). Price is not a big consideration.

Does anyone have an DHTML Menu generator package to recommend?

Many thanks. -- Sam

Could take alook at Xara.com - and their "Xara Menu Maker",
not certain if it's fully Add-In capable with FP though..... I used
it when I had FP'98,
but havn't had an occasion to use it yet with FP2003, I should check n
see!
but certainly effective and easy to use program.

You will need the latest version of Xara Menu Maker - earlier versions
are not compatible with FP2003.

The drop down menu system described at
http://www.seoconsultants.com/css/menus/tutorial/ will do multi level
menus, but is not an addin and does not use the FrontPage navigation
view. However, it does use nested lists which makes making links and a
menu structure easy.

I use this menu at http://www.rxs-enterprises.org

See http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests/navigation/navbars.asp for
more about lists in navigation
And http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/tests/navigation/navigation-view.asp
for information regarding nested lists in navigation.
