menu option rollover how-to??

Is it possible for me to to the following:

1. I want to limit the amount of pix on my site as much as possbile.
2. I want to create menu with text links such as: about us, contact,
etc....
3. I want it so that when someone rolls over "about us" that another
line of text appears below it that says: "Who we are."

I can do this with images but I want to be able to do it with just
text and maybe css.

Is that possible or even a wise idea??

Thanks.

You can do it with a free script from Dynamic Drive. Look under
navigation or links or menus at http://www.dynamicdrive.com


You can also do it by simply adding the title attribute to your link. No
script necessary and it will work when JavaScript is disabled or not
present (in a visual browser).

If you are willing to sacrifice IE, then have a look at the Menu on these
two pages and then study the Markup and CSS:

That's a great example! I'm using IE 6.0 SP1 on Windows 2k Pro and it worked
fine.

I didn't test in my version of IE6 because I assumed it wouldn't work...I
know there are one or two pages within the CSS Edge series that don't work
in IE6, I assumed it was the two I posted above.
