[Sigia-l] DHTML Menus and Usability

[Katie Ware]

Greetings -

There is a movement afoot to use DHTML menus for navigation and access to 
functions on a site I am involved with. The site is a web application and 
fairly complex. Most users are trained at one time or another. Users are 
very focused on the task at hand when they are using this site. It has been 
found that many do not see some of the options available, particularly those 
in drop down menus.

DHTML is the leading option for the navigation (mostly secondary - this 
comes after a search) and some functions. I'm looking for some information 
about usability, any sites that are similar (application and task based) 
that are good at this or really bad. I've found some, and there were a few 
recent posts that were helpful (Seven tricks that web users don't know) but 
I'm hoping for some more stuff.

And yes - I know we should be able to speak without backup, but this is the 
real world :-)

thanks!

Katie
