CodeLifter.com - JavaScript Amazing Interactive No-Layers Menu Script

Function:   A complete menu system with fully interactive
            functionality, separate messaging box, and
            programmable elements, including:
               - link color and behavior
               - link box motion indent
               - link box border colors
               - link box border styles
               - link box border width
               - individual link messages
               - default link message
            Designed as an alternative to costly Java
            applets that perform similar functions, the
            scripting uses no layers or divisions.

Browsers:   IE4 and up, NS6
            (others degrade functionally)

INSTRUCTIONS

The simplest way to present this script was to provide an
entire page, very clearly commented with internal instruc-
tions.  That's what you'll find below, after the double
lines.

There is *no* extraneous code on this page (other than the
comments).  Copy-and-paste *everything* into a fresh page;
this is complete page code.

(Note that you need one image, used as a spacer.  The name
of the spacer image file should be spacer.gif, and it should
be placed in the same directory as the page.  A 5x5-pixel
transparent or standard .gif is fine.)

Work from the commented instructions included in the page
code, gradually modifying it until it meets your need.

<!-- General notes on installing the HTML code...

- everything from BEGINNING OF MENU through END OF MENU is
        required
        
   - in general, other than noted, you can treat the contents of 
        table cells as you normally would; however, take care to
        preserve all class= and id= instances and all boxOn and
        boxOff function calls, as these do the real work
        
   - messages are used only in the boxOn calls, but the 'this' 
        reference must be included in both boxOn and boxOff calls
        
   - messages must be enclosed within single 'quote' marks
   
   - remember to change <a href> target= to _top for the same
        window, _blank or _new for a new window, or the framename
        if you're using frames (this is standard html)
