Simple Horizontal PHP Drop-Down Menu

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys, new here and looking for some help on a simple project.  I am re-designing my website and I would like to change my static horz menu with a horz drop-down menu and I would like to do it in PHP, if I can.

 

My current menu is simply a single row table with every catergory available as a menu option.  As I move on and expand, I have to keep adding items to the menu and it gets wider and wider and I am running out of room.  I don't want to move a second row of buttons, so I think a drop-down in the next best option.

 

Here is the basic menu I am starting with, mocked up in HTML:

 

http://www.rpc-electronics.com/phpmenu.php

 

I want to simply hover over the menu headers and have a simple text menu drop down with the sub catergories.  For example, when I hover over "Products" a menu drops down with the names of the product groups.

 

I do not need the menu to dynamically change, I can hard code the menu options when I need do.  One thing I am doing now with my current page is using the implode function to load in my HTML menu to the various pages, when they load.  This lets me modify a single file to change the menu on every page.  I hope I can continue doing that with the new PHP menu.

 

Any help/pointers would be great.

 

Thanks!

Jason.

That's not php question, that's client-side. Take look at css menus (use google) or javascript.
