RE: [WSG] mixing and matching vertical and horizontal dropdowns, deep breath, has anyone done it before?
Hi Thierry I actually began using your tutorial as the basis of my first test section. This looks perfect. It didn't work for me at first, it was probably something with my browser. I just got a lot of blinking elements when I rolled over them. Once again, your projects make me look like I know what I'm doing.

Hi Ted, I've added more nested lists and a few rules into the orginal page [1] to popup the grand children. This is just to give you some pointers, but I'm not planning to modify the scripts for MSIE to address this extra level (popup + tabbing navigation through all list items).

[WSG] mixing and matching vertical and horizontal dropdowns, deep breath, has anyone done it before?
Hi All I'm plugging away at a dropdown menu that is based on the hybrid dropdowns ala alistapart: http://www.alistapart.com/articles/hybrid The second level is horizontal. But, here's the kicker, we'd like to make the third level a vertical dropdown. As they say on MTV: pimp my dropdowns. For those that don't get the reference, it's a tv show, pimp my ride (http://www.mtv.com/onair/dyn/pimp_my_ride/ ), that does down right stupid, dope, fresh, something, something alterations to junky cars. So, has anyone done this or seen this before? I know it's not that novel of an idea. But you are looking at someone that just spent two hours trying to style links before I realized I forgot to put the text in tags. I needs me some coffee. It's a good thing it's free here.
