The jQuery Mega Menu plugin takes any standard HTML nested lists and turns them into horizontal mega menus.
As well as being a little more exciting for the user, a mega menu has several advantages over standard drop down menus, including:
- All options visible at the same time
- No scrolling and tricky mouse manoeuvres to see sub-menus fly out
- Using the “click” option the sub-menus remain open until closed by the user
- Using standard nested lists the groups can be easily structured and formatted with CSS
