When the mouse moves over a word and a list opens up with clickable items,
what is this called, and where can I find the script for it?

Thanks.

Rather foggy as a description. Do you have any web-site (URL)
demonstrating the desired behavior?

Moving the mouse over the word "Services" in the left-hand column brings up
a submenu.

Oh, I see now. It is called "hierarchical menu" or more colloquially
"multi-level menu". For menu opening down it is also often called
"drop down menu". Physically these are sets of HTML elements (DIV, LI
etc) with display properties changing dynamically by JavaScript in
response to mouse events.

You may also look at

- not as a sample of some outstanding quality, but for samples of
different menu layouts.

Drop-down menus can be achieved with CSS, no script involved. Start
