What can this menu do for you?
» This is a sliding java menu applet suitable for use as a navigation bar down the side of your page.
» Submenus. The menus have one level of sliding submenus. Click here to find out more about sliding submenus.
» Aqua-T theme. The Aqua-T design produces a simple semi-translucent buttonised look-and-feel to your menu. The colours are based on a single colour of your choice. In this variant, the entire menu is a single large aqua button and the menu items are just placed over this as simple text. Individual menu items become buttonised with their own aqua buttons only on rollover. Different menu types are categorised into themes, so you can obtain a variety of matching menus. Click here to see all the menus which match this theme.
» States and colours. The menu items each have three states combining to distinguish rollover items and submenu items. Click here to find out more about states and colours.
» Fonts and text formatting. The menu supports true-type fonts and you can format text colour, size, weight and alignment. Click here to find out more about fonts and text formatting.
» Layout and line-wrapping. This menu features automated layout. Automated layout means that the menu adapts itself to the content you enter into it. For example, buttons and menu items will be automatically sized and the thematic elements recalculated to fit precisely.
Here is the extra information you requested about layout and line-wrapping. [CLOSE]
- This menu supports line-wrapping. If your text is too long to fit onto one line, it will be wrapped, and the button or menu item height will be automatically increased to make extra space.
- You can also force line-breaks instead of relying on automatic wrapping. Click here to find out how to insert line-breaks.
- To adjust the text position left or right, or to assign more vertical space to a menu item, you can use transparent GIF icons. A transparent icon doesn't show, but it pushes the text and the menu item borders. You can also enlarge an existing icon with transparent space to achieve the same effect.
» Icons. Icons are supported. Icons are multi-state and easily redefined by the user. Click here to find out more about icons.
» Hyperlinks. Every menu item can have hyperlinks attached. Click here to find out more about hyperlinks.
» Script triggers. If you like writing your own javascripts, you will be happy to find that this applet can directly trigger your scripts. Click here to find out more about scripts.
» Separators. Insert specially styled separators at the top level only (not in submenus). Separator appearance is dependent on the menu theme and some have dramatic visual effects to enhance the menu interface. The Aqua-T separator is a simple 3D line. Click here to find out how to insert separators into your menu.
» Capacity. This menu supports up to 50 menu items, including submenu items (if available). For greater capacity, or for menus created dynamically or from databases, try the Big Happy Menus variation.
» Tools. An online visual configuration tool is available. Just click  menu maker. It can be used to edit the size, appearance and content of your menu.
» Sound effects. The menu can trigger sounds of your choice.
» For navigation menus similar to this but with more features and higher capacity, try these tree menus and sliding menus.
» Custom solutions based on this menu are also available.
» Help. Here is a help page with more information. If you would like to open up ALL the hidden extra information sections on this page simultaneously, then click here.
