Question

Drop Down menus, but for Mac developers

above is the site in question. I need a simple menu drop down system for Dreamweaver. I want a "no code" kind of thing, like Project Seven. However, I want to use one semi-large graphic, with rollover, to trigger the menu, which would then drop right down below. I got this idea from www.theraider.net, roll over the top 5 buttons at the tippy-top right of the page. I ideally would love the little icons on each line, but I can live without that.

Project Seven stuff seems okay, except for the fact that I would really need 5 separate menus, not just a row of text buttons.

Every single menu system I've found on the web is for Windows, and I'm not buying another copy of DW just for this. Does anyone know of a website that is for MAC Dreamweaver people? Or of a company selling menu systems for Mac besides Project Seven?

That is very possible with our menu systems. In fact, you can use our
free CSS Express Menu and achieve that effect if you spend some time
doing the CSS. All it requires is some creative use of background
images.

I ponied up the $90. Same location:

I tried my best to do what I want. I figured out how to use my graphics for the main links. I haven't tried the SwapImage thing yet to get it to act like a rollover, but that's minor.

The problem I'm having now is, on Mac Safari and Firefox, the sub-menus are centered below the graphic link. Not perfect, I want them flush left, or so, but I can live with that for now.

On Windows XP, Explorer (latest version, whatever that is) the menus are off to the right, 50% or so. The left edge of the sub menu is at the center point roughly.

I didn't see a "real" forum for support. Is there one? Newsgroups and whatnot are not what I'm looking for.
