[Web4lib] styling del.icio.us links for use on a html page?

[robin na]

Thanks everyone who posted their suggestions. I have a few new ideas. ;-D
 
 In a nutshell, I'm trying to get the libraries' del.icio.us links into either a collapsable, popout or dropdown menu, preferably css, but I'll take javascript. ;-)

I am already pulling the links (200+) into the libraries website with appropriate styling for the site (although I did get a few new ideas of different approaches, for which I thank you!).  What I need to figure out is how to collapse them into a manageable list. I started out with a multilevel css popout menu, but that isn't working so well.

I have migrated a somewhat extensive internal library links list to del.icio.us. The goal is to pull all of the links (200+ and listed multiple times) into a webpage template so that I can control the presentation of the links. I've created a css collapsible multi-level menu to provide a structure that is similiar to the existing anchor/target list (and of course, added a lovely tag cloud as another access point.) 

So, everything looks good, until I started populating each of the categories in the menu with more links... and I discovered a snag after about 8 links. It seems impossible to view each complete group of links through scrolling (the menu collapses/closes early). If I continue down this path, I'm thinking that I will need to break these up into individual menus. 

Any idea on a better way of doing this? For those of you who've incorporated del.icio.us links into webpages, how did you style your links?

 I have 5 main categories and 200+ links. My menu works perfectly with a small display (less than 8 or so links).

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. I'll be glad to share the page if I can ever get it working properly. ;-)
Thanks,
Robin
