Modifying tabs to work like a "Mega Menu"

Posted: Mar 7, 2010

Hi. I'm wondering if anyone has an example of Tabs usage where it's been changed to function like a "Mega Menu". That is...

a) no tab content appears on initial load
b) tab content appears on hover over tab, disappears with fade delay after mouse out
c) tabs retain their hover state when the tab content is visible (so the menu appears connected to the tab)

Basically, exactly like this site:http://www.actionenvelope.com/ (i don't want to use mootools :)

I'm not really sure where to start so any help would be appreciated.
This strikes me as a demo i'd have thought would already be on the main site!

Check out

They don't use jQuery Tools per-se but it works good

I just completed one using only css and will the nice thing here is that the 5% of the users to the site that disable javascript will still use the menus.

you can take a look at the source code and find menu.css and see what I did. basically use use the :hover pseudo class.
