Do you build your own navigation or buy job lots?

    Just wondering where you guys get your navigation menus from? Do you take the time to build them individually or do you buy programs with lots already built?

    I've recently the DHTML menus from http://www.xtreeme.com/ which are pretty good, but I need something a bit more versatile, and editable.

    Any recommendations??

    Thanks all

    I always build them myself, it doesn't take long and I know that if I make it then it will do exactly what I want it to do and I won't have to spend any time searching for a script that may or may not exist.

    Thanks for that! I've just downloaded it and I'm printing the manual as we speak.

    I really need to get into coding my own menus, but its the drop downs and the php/java that leaves me a bit unstuck :(
