The Dreamweaver built-in show popup menu behavior has a lot of issues
with a lot of things. I would advise you to abandon them. There are a
lot of popups that work better and require MUCH less code to
implement. See the following for a couple of tutorials about how to
create them:

Thanks for your quick response. I went through the tutorial for: [url]http://projectseven.com/tutorials/auto_hide/index.htm[/url] and it seems to functionally do what I want; however, it does not provide the visual punch I am looking for. Is there a way to incorporate a java rollover? Thanks again. -Eric H

Eric:

Assuming you are wanting a 'javascript' rollover, sure - you can adapt those
easy methods to any kind of menu.

I have done so on many of the sites listed in my portfolio, including -
