Is anyone willing to make me a simple barebones horizontal dropdown menu to go into a navigation div. I got a background image here waiting and all i need someone to do is quickly code me up the menu style and drop down script.

Needs to have cross browser support! I am willing to pay a small fee for this or return a favour.

Would be helping me a lot!!

Thanks

ok done, can somebody test this for me...

on cross browsers

also i cant seem to get the a:hover function to work so the colour of the links change on rollover..

and another little niggle is the borders, no matter what combination i seem to use i cant seem to get them to be 1px single border all the way through the menu (i.e. the top and the bottom always combine to give 2px borders) ..

here is the css

Code:
/* CSS Document */

body {
background-image:url(Images/background.jpg);
}


div#container {
position: absolute;
background-color:#ffffff;
margin-left: 50px;
margin-top: 50px;
width: 901px;
height: 500px;
}

* html div#container { position: absolute; margin-top: 15px; }

div#banner {
position: absolute;
background-image: url(Images/banner.jpg);
height: 85px;
width: 895px;
margin-left: 2px;
margin-right: 2px;
margin-top: 2px;
margin-bottom: 2px;
border: 1px solid black
}

div#navigation {
position: absolute;
background-image: url(Images/menu.jpg);
margin-left: 2px;
margin-right: 2px;
margin-top: 90px;
width: 895px;
height: 20px;
border:1px solid black;
z-index: 2;
}

div#maincontent {
height: 360px;
width: 895px;
position: absolute;
background-color: #666666;
margin-top: 113px;
margin-left: 2px;
border: 1px solid black;
clear: left;
}

* html div#maincontent{

height: 360px;
width: 895px;
position: absolute;
background-color: #666666;
margin-top: 114px;
margin-left: 2px;
border: 1px solid black;
clear: left;
}






div#footer {
position: absolute;
background-image: url(Images/menu.jpg);
margin-left: 2px;
margin-right: 2px;
margin-top: 477px;
width: 895px;
height: 20px;
border:1px solid black;
z-index: 2;
}

is this ok??

www.caldicot-pc-helpdesk.co.uk/menu/index.htm

if there is anyway to get rid of that double border on the right that would be great..when the menu expands, the submenu items are 1px to the right of the main menu items in IE..Why is this??
