    there are plenty of scripts that do that but in order not to damage your seo, make sure to pick one that is unobtrusive and uses a native elements structure to create the menu.

    for example, in the source you may have:

    
<div id="menu" class="menu" style="display: none">
<ul>
<li><a href="">item 1</li>
...
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="">dropdown 2 item 1</li>
...
</ul>
</div>
    PHP:
    by using a script that will convert the "menu" element's children into it's own you will ensure that google etc can spider all menu links correctly.
