In my view, the best way of doing collapsible menus involves constructing a nested list, styling it to look more like the typical tree menu, and activating the parts of the style sheets that "display: none" the collapsed parts, during the initialisation, but that won't work on NS4, whereas the typical hacks in terms of moving around layers will. What it is really needed is a declarative approach within CSS (I've not checked CSS3, for possible existing *future* support) which allows a nested list to be declared to be a collapsible menu, rather than having to rely on high risk techniques like scripting. Essentially, HTML is not a suitable medium for doing collapsible menus in the real world at the moment, so any attempt to do so will be messy.Received on Wednesday, 5 December 2001 02:05:34 GMT
