Well I'm kind of new to this, too, though it will be something I'll be spending a lot of time on in the near future.
The way it looks easiest to do it in CSS is by using lists in HTML to represent the top-level menu items...
<ul>
<li>Title 1</a></li>
<li>Title 2</a></li>
<li>Title 3</a></li>
</ul>
and include another list for each set of items under that with an anchor tag for links inside.

You absolutely position each menu list under each category and hide them.

for each list item on the top menu, set a :hover property to "unhide" the hidden menu, giving it the illusion that it's popping up.
If you want support for browsers that don't support the "hover class for everything, put some <a> tags in the top menu list as well.

That's the basic concept, at least. I don't have any code handy to show you how: sorry.

Anyone else have some tips/corrections and some sample code?
