dropdown menus javascript

Question

I am completely new to javacsript/jquery and am working on a small app for browsers. I am trying to include dropdown menus like those on Facebook for notifications or new messages. Does anyone have any good starting advice or good references? Thanks!

well basically it's just a divd that displays when you click. So if you're using jQuery you should be able to style the div and then $("#div").show(); I'd say it's more like a submenu than a dropdown.

this should be something to go by http://sammaye.wordpress.com/2010/01/23/facebook-style-css-jquery-drop-down-menus/

Jquery's LightBox is hugely popular for doing popout menus. I personally prefer to roll my own, but as far as plugins go, lightbox is the breadwinner.
