SUN is...

Supplying Open Office (their version) on Solaris and you'll find your old school HTML editors in that. The problem I've had with such a platform is you take a step back about 10 years in such tools (maybe more) so you'll have to grind it out the old way.

But since a web site can be hosted on the Sun, why not create it on the PC and toss it up on the Sun?

Another One; Menu Help
Aug 2, 2005 3:01PM PDT

Thanx for the reply R. Proffitt, well currently My notebook went to the repair shop, and the only thing which I had left in my hand was the Solaris system at work which as you said the HTML edtior takes you back to the stone age.

I have one more question:

take a look at this website:

http://www.global-packaging-alliance.com/

I want to achieve such menu which they have implemented in their website, I know I cant create this kind of menus using Macromedia Fireworks, but that doesnt have nested Menus, I would be thankfull if you can give me a clue on this, a tutorial will be much more better.

yet again, Thanx in advance...
and I have to say CNET rocks this world!!!!

Any Samples!!

I knew that I can take a look at the source, but its very crowded and the code is just everywhere, if it were some simpler tutorials, it would have been much more better, any way I'll give a try at the source.

Thanx again.

For your info, I read the source and got the hang of it, well Although it links to 35Kb Java Script code, got how to make the menus dynamically.

yet again, thanx....
