    Want a "pull-down" menu on rollover

    I want to create what I am calling a "pull-down" menu list. I want either a button or text that displays a menu list on rollover. I then want to be able to pick one of the items on that list as a link to a new page. Check out the "Navigation" bar on this page to see what I am talking about..

    http://www.webstudiohelp.net/Navigation.html

    I have found a lot of information about how to do this with JavaScript, but so far have not been able to decipher JavaScript. I have a friend who created this type of thing with Macromedia, but I do not have the dollars for that software. Can KM help me do this?

    Look at this page I'm designing. Go to the JOBS page and mouse over the JOB OPPORTUNITY button...Is that the type of effect you're looking for?

    That is the idea. Did you do that in KM? If so, can you explain how?

    Just use the visibility attribute.

    I put this in the button that I want to activate the submenu.

    on(rollOver){
    button_name._visible=true;
    }

    Then in the other buttons, I put this.

    on(rollOver){
    button_name._visible = false;
    }

    Another way is to create a separate movie clip with the additional buttons you want to show on rollover and use the visibility attribute for the movie clip.

    Any programming language is at its best before it is implemented and used.

    Ah, I see...
    Thanks

    This client actually caused me to learn some stuff I didn't know so I'm going to be redesigning my company's website with my newly gained knowledge.

    I hope it pays off as for my site as well.
