[SOLVED] Help with the menus on my page

[sing2trees]

Hi all,

I have a very basic knowledge of webdesign and mainly use Dreamweaver MX, with a limited amount of manual coding.

I am wanting to redesign my site which has several pages. There is a menu bar at the top with different categories, and then sub categories on the left hand menu.

I could really do with advice on two issues:

1 - Can I create a menu for the top, which then stretches down to show the sub categories?
ie. hover over Category A, and a little menu scrolls down below showing Subcategory A, B, C etc
(Similar to the one used at www.diy.co.uk)

2 - Currently, if I have to adjust one of the menu items, I have to update the menu on every single page. Is there an easier way of doing this?

Many thanks in advance for your help, advice and patience!

Thanks

Ben

1. Check out http://www.cssplay.co.uk for CSS menus. Or check out http://www.milonic.com/ for some JS menus.

2. Check out my article in last month's newsletter: $_GET['ting'] Pages (Safely) With PHP.

I have many pages for my website and when I add a menu item, I am stuck changing it on every pages! Is there an easier way?
