These are a powerful menu solution that feature text based words over a background image, for easy updating and customizable slide out functions that can come in from any side, at any speed, containing an un limited amount of sub links. And all you have to do to add another entire section is copy past the link list and add a few commands to the corresponding JavaScript file. This demo has evolved! NEW!

This was a special request that my client at the time made. He wanted to be able to add a short comment to the over state of the submenu selections, just like he had it when the were javascript image swap drop downs.
