经过战斗测试的jquery / javascript下拉菜单

Question

Drop Down menus are a common and almost ubiquitous UI element, and yet, I find it really hard to "pick one". before heading down the long road of rolling and "battle testing" my own, I'd like to put it out there and find out what others are using.

What are the most popular solutions for jquery, or javascript dropdown menus ?

Should be, lightweight, easy to customise and properly cross browser compatible, and at least function appropriately down to IE8.

Ones I've tried and used in the past with the best experience that meet this criteria inlcude :

• Super fish - http://users.tpg.com.au/j_birch/plugins/superfish/
• Dynamic Drive Smooth Menu http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddsmoothmenu.htm

To Clarify: looking specifically for multilevel drop down menus similar to the examples above. I'm also open to "avoid these they're sh*t" type answers if you feel so inclined.

PS: please avoid adding 5 from one of the 500 drop down menu articles that appear when first searching on google, I'd like to know about what YOU"RE using, what dropdown menus YOU love and hate.

Answer 2

I personally have used SuperFish, in it's standard form, it's not too pretty but with quite a bit of adjustments I find it can look quite nice.

Then using something like this: http://snook.ca/archives/javascript/jquery-bg-image-animations

Can make them look very cool!

Answer 3

经过大量的研究和讨论，老实说，我对这方面的选择感到非常失望，但有很多选择，但是如上所述，滚动我自己的选择似乎是最好的方法。
