I need to create a menu on the left side of my page that expands as you go...
say you hover or click on a button named "Kitchen", and more items filed under
"Kitchen" would pop up to the side... like small appliances, decor,
accessories, etc.... What is that type of form called and how can I make it?
Help Help Help Please! :)

You will also find similar stuff at ranjan's place -

Thanks for that. I checked it out and that looks like what I need. But isn't
there a way to do that in Dreamweaver? I'm clueless about this software and
don't know a thing about code. What is CSS exactly anyway?

Gadzooks. You are really at the bottom of the feeding chain then. The very
ultimately most last place you want to go is into the fearsome depths of the
MM pop-up menus.

Unfortunately, you're going to have to know a teeny tiny bit of HTML (well,
maybe more) to make them yourself. The tutorials at the PVII site is one of
the best places to start, but a cautionary note - you won't be making these
tonight....

I guess taking on this project was more for me to handle than I was ready for!
I've got a couple of WYSIWYG programs and they are "okay".... but I wasn't
getting some of the more advanced features I was looking for. I guess I'm
better off just hiring someone to make it for me! thanks anyways!! :)

It depends entirely on what you want to do. There's lots of help here.

If you are willing to spend a little money, buy PVII's dreamweaver Menu
Magic addons rather than hiring someone else to do the menu.

Menu Magic II is probably the one you want.
but check here to see that you get the one that has the features you
need http://www.projectseven.com/product...stems/index.htm
