I already stated in my post that I already read that website. It was
interesting yes but they wouldnt make something that wouldnt work. Maybe hard
to use or learn but not impossible. What do you mean properly defined in
Dreamweaver? The entire site is made in Dreamweaver.

And yes if there are other methods that would be easier please share. After
reading that website I searched the web for other options. I found two options:
1.) Use intensely complicated code 2.) Pay for a program thatll do it for you.

I found a way to put them in Dreamweaver, where it does it for you, but you
cant customize it all too well.. But I think this would be a nice effect for my
site.. just cant find a way to do it.

Of course they could, and indeed they did. The menus they are using DO NOT
WORK in the way that you need them to for any use on the web.

Those are about your only options.

And what's your time worth? Let's say a professional package that is tested on
modern browsers (IE 6 and 7 as well as Firefox 2 came out since that article
was written) is $90 and your rate is $15/hour. If you spent 6 hours working
with that Fireworks code (including reading articles, searching, and posting on
forums) and got nowhere, you just wasted the equivalent of that professional
package...[i]and[/i] you don't know how to make it work reliably in Firefox 2
or IE 7. Or IE 8, due out "like real soon now."

So...how much (your hourly rate rate times hours spent fighting with the code)
have you wasted so far? :wink;
