Ducati Paranoid (IV) Inmate From: in your head Insane since: Feb 2001	posted 06-11-2002 13:46 Guys.. I have a little dilema with navigation here... I have a site with lots of links and for some reason I am stuck on that "jump menu" navigation with some nice css to it for better look instead of going with the whole image rollover fiasco... What do you guys think??? I mean, I have like 14 links to other pages... Wouldn't it be better to do a nice "jump menu" instead of doing the whole navigation bar deal? Help me make a decision here... Thanks... MAX

I like these if say you have a "Products" page and then have a jump menu that lists all the different products on different pages. Kind of like what Symantec uses. Later, C:\ ~Binary is best~

CPrompt Maniac (V) Inmate From: there...no..there..... Insane since: May 2001	posted 06-11-2002 15:36 Yeah, I wouldn't use that for the entire sites navigation. It would make things a little confusing I would think. That and I just don't think it would look very professional. Check out the FAQ about a menu called Brother Cake. That would be your best bet.
