Hi all out there,  
I would really appreciate some help , I really need to design a drop down menu system for my site however I have tried the tutorial on this great site and I am still running into some problems. The thing is that the menu keeps flickering on and off it wont stay open. I know that this is fairly basic …but please  
Cheers :tb:
