My request is not generic.  I gave a specific URL.  I am trying to make the 
same
look and fell as the one at MSNBC.  It is content driven and as you can 
tell from the
source code created with something like generator.  I give respect where 
due.  I admit
that I have seen some real lame answers on this board to some real lame 
questions.
I appreciate all help I receive.

Now, I can create a flash driven menu but then I must
require the user to have one more piece of technology.  I am a minimalist. 
Flash is
great on a gaming site or even on a portfolio but if you look at the top 
ecommerce and
content driven sites Flash is virtually unseen.  Why? Its a waste of time, 
and prevents
a good number of users from a smooth web experience.

I believe that I can create the Menu options in DHTML for 4.0 browsers and up.
Since, I intend to serve the pages dynamically, I was thinking about the
workload to the server.  This board has alot of top notch talent.  I was 
hoping that
someone might give me a hint or idea that might push me in the right 
direction.
Not the cynical answer.
