Horizontal Nav Menu (still not solved)

Does anyone have a link or can post the code to a easily configurable horizontal navigation menu?

Basically I want some tabs that have "Home" "About" "Blah"

Then, as you rollover them in the area below appear submenu choices that you can then select with your mouse.

There HAS to be easy how-to somewhere but I can't find it.

Thanks in advance.

    This site is pretty fantastic.

    Specifically, this is exactly what you're looking for.

    EDIT: Actually, this one's even better.

    Simlpe versions of that can be done with CSS using unordered lists and <div style="display:none"> techniques.

    More advanced (read: fancy) versions that break machintosh browsers use javascript.

    Odds are you aren't interested in Mac breaking code.

    Actually, I don't support IE for Mac anymore.

    THat's actually not what I'm looking for...

    I want something that's horizontal - not dropdown menus.

    i.e. as you mouseover a tab, below it appears another horizontal list of links.

    Like this at the top:

    Just active, so it toggles as you rollover.

    I'm not sure how helpful this will be, but http://www.dansdata.com/ uses something like that, though the lower bar appears for only one option.

    The html effect is called "mouse over". Google that and I'm sure you'll find your tutorial.


    Like so...

    Ohh, you were not that clear.

    I highly reccomend viewing

    Which contains many articles on advanced navigation.
