RE: FN-FORUM: Creating menu's with CSS...

The menu dropdowns don't appear at all in Opera 7.23 and appear broken
in IE 6.01.

Have a look at http://www.aplus.co.yu/Sparks/ADxMenu/80/

It's fantastic, semantic and seems to be crossbrowser (at least it works
in IE 5.0+, Firefox & Opera).

You can easily position it [1], it degrades nicely with JS turned off
and it works over form/flash elements (not many menus can claim this
last one).

I'll admit that I've not used it in a site yet, but I'm damned if I
can't see a reason not to.

[1] Try giving the menu container an attribute of {position: absolute}
and making sure that it's within a parent with an attribute of
{position: relative}.
