    Drop/pull down menu on image - help

    Hi,
    I'm working with an existing page to add some additional functionality to it. It is not worth the time and effort to do it from scratch.

    It currently has an image to choose a provider based on US State. It is only a jpg image which shows a small arrow as if for the pull down menu, but its just an image. I'm trying to map the actual pull down menu right on that spot so that arrow actually becomes functional. I've done a little similar thing before with an image to activate a part of it as a hyperlink using the "map" tag but dont know how the pull down menu would work.
    One additional point, the pull down menu will be coming from a database, but I think that is something we should worry about later....
    Thanks very much
    uzee

    There was a post only yesterday about drop down menus as map positions:-
    http://www.webdevforums.com/showthread.php?t=20858
    Look at http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/flyout_wall.html
    and CSSplay's main css file http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/css/fly_wall.css
    which shows a fly-out menu positioned over a background. It is possible to adapt this to a horizontal menu by putting float:left in the li tags, plus a few other adjustments of course!
    Code downloaded to my PC will be deleted in due course.
    WIN7; IE9, Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Safari for Windows; screen resolution usually 1366*768.
    Also IE6 on W98 with 800*600 and IE8 on Vista 1440*900.
