Hrm... you could make use of the menu that is on css/edge ;-)

Sounds terribly slow.
I don't know jacksquat 'bout JS, but.....
Could there be one file which includes the DIVs for each menu and that
file is read onMouseOver?
About the only way I can see this working is with a fixed nav bar on the
left hand side that would open over the page.
CSS possibility: What about changing the z-index from like -10000 to +2
on :hover or :active ? would that work?
