The second level of navigation is the drop-down navigation. Like the top static navigation we discussed in part 1, the drop-down navigation is static in that it can be found on every page of the website and generally unchanged. However, the drop-down navigation also has a dynamic element in that when you roll-over a category you will see a drop-down list of subnavigation points.
The menu is broken down into FIVE categories:
