Accordion Menu

i know that there are many of these threads around, and i have read most of them but none really explain anything properly.

i would like to know how to build an accordion menu, but with out the use of the component in Flash Pro 2004.

If any one would care to post a step by step (im a n00b :rabbit: ) guide on how to make a horizontal accordion, i would really apprecitate it. Or if you could link me to one.

Thanks.
