I think this is what you were looking for:
http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/menus/demo.html
Eric's demo makes the submenus fly out horizontally, but the same
technique can be applied to create pull-down-style menus. In fact, the
demo of mine that Eric mentions on that page works that way:
http://www.serve.com/apg/workshop/cssMenu.html
IMO, this is really a borderline technique. One could easily argue that
this is a behavioral extension that isn't really appropriate for CSS,
and should really be the domain of scripting in the first place --
something akin to the bold and italic elements in HTML that really step
into the domain of CSS. But I'll leave that argument for the academics.
