basic menu 1
orientation: mainmenu horizontal/submenu vertical
- main menu with one submenu block each
- main items emphasized with capitals and bold letters
- items/subitems with colour codes - further pages would reflect this
- width of submenu according to longest item in each category
- item separation with 1 px dark green line
- different font colours for normal and over states
- switch to a assumed follow-up page to see if the menu takes less up time to appear now that the menumachine specific files have loaded into cache of your browser (provided you don't have it set to 'never cache'...)
(on DSL line you won't notice a delay, even ISDN will be fine, it's just for others to check the loading time)
(for demonstration only - no pagelinks added to the items)
