Kevin,

take a look at my personal home site, at:
http://www.library.adelaide.edu.au/~sthomas


This uses multiple pop-ups, using Javascript code that I found at
Webreference, http://webreference.com/dev/menus/index.html


The pop-ups still have a "Go" button, but selecting an item from the menu
should link directly, without needing the button.

Pop-ups are really very easy, and should work on any browser with
Javascript support, on any platform.
