Its called a DHTML menu, you can get some here…

www.dynamicdrive.com

Sidenote: Many people consider them very tacky.

I think it’s done with JavaScript and DHTML, if so you should be able to look at the source code of the page and find the scripting.

It depends on how it is used and such, but overall, menus like that are tacky.

Agreed, and they also perform poorly on older systems with slower processors.
