: Is it possible to use javascript to create a rolling effect (for example have more choices roll out of a menu button) when a button is clicked. I have seen it done in Java, but wish to aviod using do to the fact that many earlier browsers don't support java. I also need to be able to have the rolling effect drop images, not just text. The other problem I am encountering is that I need the menu choices below the one clicked to move down when the new images scroll out. If this is possible, would someone please help me...or let me know that it isn't possible.
: Thanks Michelle
What you seek to do is possible, although certainly not trivial. I would personally do it with a layer, but that might be too restrictive since you need version 4 browsers.
The comment about older browsers not supporting Java is not necessarily valid - you will probably have more luck with Java, since it has been around longer and has less version numbers. Older versions of Netscape won't do much, and older versions of IE certainly aren't compliant either.
