- Submenus dropdown on mouseover - Cross-frame support - menus work on frameset-based pages - Unlimited number of sub levels - Special JavaScript API for changing javascript menu "on-the-fly" - Horizontal or vertical orientation - Submenus automatically scrolls - Several menus on one page - Search feature - add the search area in the menu and type symbols.
Create contextual menus for your pages. For this purpose you should assign a special function for the object you want. The current coordinates of the mouse pointer or your own ones can be used for the contextual menu.
When the submenu is larger than the visible area of the page the submenu will be automatically decreased. To see all the submenu items you do not need to use scrollbars or something like that - just put your mouse to the bottom of a submenu and it will be automatically scrolled! You can also specify height and width for each separate submenu.
Build menus completely based on Cascading Style Sheets. It is possible to appoint the individual CSS styles for separate elements of the menu.
