Web builders searching for more than a simple text menu face a multitude of choices among Java applications and JavaScripts on the market. The other thing they face is finding one that works the same day the page hits the browser. A program called AllWebMenus, Version 1.2, appears to be one of the better tools available to meet that goal. It's easy to implement, provides a preview before it ever hits the Web page, is highly flexible, and is reasonably quick.
Users can construct either popup or drop- down menus that can be horizontal or vertical.
The menus can be movable, stay visible while scrolling, contain static or dynamic images, borders, colors, and many other variations. Users begin the menu construction process either by choosing an overall style from the Style Gallery , or by creating their own style which can be added to the gallery for later use. The first steps in the process are to assign the overall values to the menu, including colors, sizes, menu items, whether or not there will be submenus, and a host of other properties. The program also provides a drop-down arrow on the right side of the property line which users can click on to get the various possibilities for that function. Another adjustment is the distance between each menu item, or a choice to make them all equal size and equi-distant apart.
