Drop down menus for library home page

A while ago I came across a web site in which the various buttons would light up as you passed your cursor over them.  While that looked very nice, it was the drop down menu that really interested me. As your mouse passed over a button, you would see a drop down menu for that heading (anywhere from 2-6 items).  By passing your mouse down that list and clicking with the mouse you would be taken to that particular library site.  I thought I had bookmarked the webpage but can't find it for looking.

My question now is, how can I replicate the drop-down menu that will contain active links to our library site.  I can use a forms page to create it but I can't get the highlighted item to be an active link.
Is it possible with out worrying about scripting.   I'm worried that the real solution may be the use of Java scripting (which I can't do).  If anyone can offer a suggestion or point me to a web site that offers help I would appreciate it.

You can see what I'm playing around with at:

If you view the page source you can see what I've been trying to do by using other page samples - and of course they aren't working for me. This is my "work page" so I know there's lots of mistakes on it. 

Mahalo.
