I would like to build the menu illustrated below.

**O** – o – o – **O** – **O**

Each big **O** (button) contains a submenu (small o:s) of variable length.  
When initialized, the first **O** ’s submenu will be visible and the others collpased.  
When an **O** is clicked its submenu will be expanded and the others collapse.  
I would like the whole menu to be built from an xml file and preferringly there should be some animation when submenus are expanded/collapsed.

If you have seen a pre-built menu component of this kind somewhere, I would be glad for a link (could cost …)

thanks!
