CSS Start

How many times do we see in forum pages the cry; "I've tried using Suckerfish…", "I've started with Suckerfish and made some minor changes but can't get it to work".
My advice is to forget Suckerfish or any other 'out-of-the-box' menu or menu generating software. Sooner or later it will not perform as you expected and you won't know why.
Start by understanding the building blocks of creating css driven menus. Then you can put your own vertical or horizontal menu templates together and you will understand how they work. If and when the need arises, you will have a good idea where to start 'tweaking'. I shall assume nothing and take this tutorial from basics, so forgive me if you understand some of this already.
