HTML navigation menu

DonnyDave

I'm designing a website (never done it before, picking it up as I go along) and I'm looking for something to improve navigation.

There is presently a static navigation pane on the left which gives categories, sub categories and sub-sub categories etc.

As there is going to be more and more sub-sub categories, it's going to get a bit long and clumbersome if they're all to be shown at the same time.

An menu that expands sounds good. When someone clicks on a category, it opens up all sub and sub-sub categories. But how can this be done so that the pages within each category show expanded menus for the respective category?

I'm using Frontpage and have managed to write it all using HTML, without using the GUI so as to avoid any bloated code (hopefully!).

try using Cascading style sheets (CSS)

The above link is a very good site with lots of working examples

Hello and thanks for this.

I came across this sample menu and based my design on it:

have a google for html sliding menus

they are much neater and slicker if done in java script with jquery lots of templates you can use and just paste into your HTML
