    I Presume its Java Script the Lads Have Used (Tis Very Nice might I Add).

    You Can View it by Clicking in the IE Toolbar: View :: Source

    Then Its up to you to Find It

    It's a dhtml menu. Dhtml = Javascript + Css

    So your best off learning Css first (www.webmonkey.com ) and then javascript

    Then you combine both and tada!

    Its all done in DHTML = A mixture of JS scripts and CSS files. Go to www.dhtmlcentral.com or www.opencube.com or .net I'm not sure.

    www.opencube.com you can download a DHTML Menu Editor. Its really cool, but you need understanding of CSS to embed it in your site.
