Anylink Drop Down Menu

wetheridge · December 6, 2011

I am new to web design and had someone helping however I can not get hold of them to finish the site. Basically I am unable to get the menu's to work correctly and can't figure it out. I would appreciate some help on figuring out why this code does not work. I am using Frontpage as my editor and I am listing the code below. Someone please explain what I am doing wrong.

Oh my - this is one pile of scary-looking code. No doctype, a bunch of inline styling, tables for layout, many, many spacer gifs, deprecated tags - that probably has nothing to do with your dropdown not working, but still - there's a lot of room for improvement.

The best way for us to check into what is going on is if you post a link to your site. Got one?
