How would I go about doing something like this?

Phaser · 20 Jul 2007 at 12:32

Right, i've pretty much got my design sorted.

http://dziremedia.co.uk/sites/djsniperz/4/

See the icons at the top - I am wanting it so that when users hover over them, the "navigation" text changes to the page name, eg "contact" or "audio".

How would I go about doing this? Am I right in thinking javascript is the way forward?

I have no idea and don't really know where to start.

Any help or pointers appreciated.

Personally I would do it in Flash as that's easy for me.

Forgot all about Flash! Unfortunately I don't have a clue how to do in Flash either.

I'm just wondering whether it's ok from an accessability point of view...It's the only navigation there (apart from the site map).

for me when looking at the example site when hovering over the nav menu it doesn't change anything. Is it supposed to or is it that layout what the example was for?

At the moment it's just one big image. (The only graphics editing program I have on here is MS Paint!)

I will have a look at the CSS method first of all, and I can't get it sorted with that i'll look at using Javascript.

Cheers for the help so far all.

2 divs, one floated left, one floated right, inside a div floated left if that makes any sense?

Just take a look at the source code and CSS.

Also I can see what some people mean in regards to the navigation...

I think the page name displaying when you hover it will be quite obvious though.

What could I do to get round this other than a proper navigation down the left hand side?

I could put the links to the top right of the furtherst top blue bar?
