This is really a jQuery question whether it's needed for SharePoint or not. Please don't ask these here unless you can clearly show the integration with out-of-the-box SharePoint. – Alex Angas Aug 23 '10 at 23:54

We recently did something like this in our MOSS site. For this we have used jquery libraries.

You would need to have two levels of div elements. The first level would render the parent element i.e. recipes. Further for each parent div element, you would need to have a hidden child div which would contain this information (accordingly styled).

Accordingly you would need to show/hide the child divs based on the click/mousehover.

I think Vivek is on the right track with you, though I would probably use styled unordered lists as opposed to divs so it's a bit more cross-browser compatible.

On a side note, it appears from the source that the Kraft website you linked is SharePoint.

Yeah i know that the site is a Sharepoint site. I need more detailed info on this.Can't find anyhting useful – Patrick Aug 24 '10 at 9:14
Well Vivek confirmed the approach for you. That's just a dynamically populated menu so it shouldn't be too difficult. Assuming your links are all in a list, use jQuery to call the GetListItems operation of the Lists web service and write the menu elements (<ul><li></li></ul>) based on the return. – webdes03 Aug 24 '10 at 14:30
