Navigation help!!

Hi all,<br />
I don't know where this should go, but I have a question about the navigation of my site. It's a bit hard to explain, so listen carefully.<br />
<br />
On top on my page I have a navigation bar that is using image maps to link to several other html pages.<br />
I only have 6 links there, but would like these links to be<br />
divided each into another series of links.<br />
For example, if it would stay on top of the page "boards",<br />
i would like to make sublinks like "Boards login", "Boards register", "Boards faq" etc.<br />
Has anyone got an idea of how I could do this?<br />
I would like the sublinks to open into another navigation bar on the left, is this possible?<br />
This is an example of a site of how i would like it:<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.smartwebby.com/services.asp">http://www.smartwebby.com/services.asp</a><!-- m --><br />
(if you click the top links, every time a new left side bar opens)<br />
<br />
I'm guessing you have to use frames to do this. I'm using dreamweaver mx, but I never seem to figure out how you can make the border of the frame go away. If I set the border to 0, it still displays a small line across the page???<!--content-->Using frames with a separate frame for the menus, it would be easiest done. Let's have an example, menu.html contains:<br />
* Home<br />
* Services<br />
* Support<br />
<br />
When somebody clicks on let's say Services, menu_services.html will be opened in the menu frame at the same time as the services main page is opened in the main frame (this may be done by a simple JavaScript).<br />
menu_services.html looks like this:<br />
* Home<br />
* Services<br />
- Hosting<br />
- Webmaster forums<br />
* Support<br />
<br />
<br />
Actually, you don't need to use frames for this, by having the sublinks for Services opened on every page belonging to the Services category, and so on, you see?<br />
<br />
This could also be done by JavaScript, but it's not secessary. (is necessary spelt like that?)<!--content-->the only way to have sublinks is to use dhtml or javascript.<br />
<br />
there are a lot of scripts out there that do exactly this. a good one is Coolmenus (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.dhtmlcentral.com/projects/coolmenus/">http://www.dhtmlcentral.com/projects/coolmenus/</a><!-- m -->)<!--content-->I just read through my post and I really hope that you understand everything. And by the way, I spelt necessary correctly! :)<!--content-->Originally posted by scoutt <br />
