HTML 3 level drop down navigation

    I am searching for a resource on how to make a 3 level drop down navigation menu in HTML. Something like : (on hover over) Top category>secondary category>article

    Everything I have found so far has shown me how to do it in CSS with java code added to it. I have NO CSS skills :( and I would really like to create the navigation menu without using any java.

    Does anyone have any resources that they could point me to on how to do this in straight html? Or can someone here simply show me some code of how to do it?

    Thanks.

    I'm not sure if it would be possible to do it in just hmtl and css because you need to use a hover function.

    When the user puts their mouse of the first navigation link it has to tell the other link to show up somehow, i'll have a play around and see if i can think of anything.

    Thanks for the feedback, I am not sure if it is possible either. I found this http://sperling.com/examples/menuh/
    and it is along the lines of what I am looking for, but of course it uses java as well.

    I think thats your best option to be honest,

    remember java and javascript are different

    It is in CSS 3.0 as far as I know, but not all browsers support that, so it'd be pretty useless.

    Using Javascropt as well as the html/css is one way you can do it at the moment.
