Creating your own DHTML drop down menu…

…. is in a word, the biggest waste of time since Stevie Wonder´s visit to a mime feastival. I was trying most of yesterday to create a drop down menu in a combination of Javascript and CSS for Island Leisure and after much messing around with a free menu I came accross, gave up.
 
The menu in question works fine but when I tried to insert it into the page I wanted (nothing fancy, just a table or two and a bit of CSS) it all went horribly wrong. I finally got it working in IE6 and thought that all was well, but then I loaded up Firefox and the positioning was all wrong.
 
Sod it. I decided to stop messing around and use the Milonic DHTML menu. I´ve used it before on a non-profit project and had no problems at all. I figured paying the ?20 ish was a lot better than me spending hours going through code trying to get it working.

 
Lesson learned
