SEO:no Javascript-navigation but CSS instead?

Question

Today I read an article on seo. It stated that searchengines
have great difficulty with finding/indexing sites with JavaScript 
navigation[/unavigation]. It also recommended to use CSS
instead, if you want to create nice menues. I would very much
appreciate opinions/recommendations from experienced DW-users
regarding these two issues.
 Also, tips on how to built these nice navigationbuttons with
css are very much appreciated! (With css I am an absolute
beginner)

The issue isn't javascript menus in general, but the menus that embed the
actual URLs into the javascript.

What kind of menu are we talking about? If it's a flat, static menu, then
CSS is great. You can even do rollover effects with it.

If you need fly-out menus, then CSS + Javascript is typically the best
option. Project VII has several to choose from that are quite nice.
