Does anyone know a good place for learning how to design menus? I came across a good on the last day (www.asda.co.uk and go intothe shop online) and was wondering if someone could help me. I have a problem that i am trying to create a site with up to 5000 stock items under 40 headings or so (sum are subsections) and I am a bit lost.
Thanks in advance

Take a look at Layer Genie (an extension) and the corresponding tutorials etc. here at DMXzone at: www.dmxzone.com/ShowDetail.asp?NewsId=4353

it doesnt really do the job, the tool is good but not what im looking for. Look at the asda website. looks like it was done under the idea of bread crumbs, well thats one way I can see of creating the menu structure.

i think you want to look here, David:
www.playingwithfire.com/tool_tips/tabs.html
although you could probably achieve the same thing with layers, like Marja suggested.

Macromedia provides some insight as well. Infact they link to this same article and present you with a nice, functioning, prebuild tab image:
