Pure CSS drop down menus - that work!

Does anyone know if this is possible?

CSS Gurus - and everyone else,

Is it possible to create a pure text based CSS drop down menu that will work for the latest versions of IE, NN, Opera, etc. I know its been done for individual browsers by different people. But has anyone cracked the all major browser and all menu's render (pretty much) the same trick?

I just wondered, as a client of mine wanted something like this but I was not prepared to get into the "this version works with xx", "this version works with yy" etc.

Any insight into this would be gratefully received.

TA!

Well go for styled LIs with ASs in them, works fine for me. Should be pretty cross browser if you only need newest versions and stick to strict standards.

I don't think it is possible to do in IE. This may be a treat you will have to leave for Mozilla and Opera users (or any other "standards compliant" browser) and wait for IE to catch up.
