HTML/CSS/Javascript Pulldown Menus Primer Tutorial
Here is a tutorial that introduces you to the website idea of Pulldown Menus. What is a Pulldown Menu? Glad you asked. Pulldown Menus let you present a set of links without the clutter until you choose to “let the clutter in”. We are not showing a jQuery solution here, as we have simplified it quite a bit, but there are good jQuery approaches to Pulldown Menu requirements, such as shown for jQuery UI Accordian Primer Tutorial. As you can imagine, Pulldown Menus are very popular with Mobile App developers and this link goes to an Android mobile app advice demo page.

you can just as well use syntax like
<a href=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-mX9T2qyIQ#zkWMcRlE1mQ” onclick=”Javascript: alert(‘S,VFX’);'” title=”Two Ronnies Answer”>S,VFX</a>
CSS doesn’t appear either, but when CSS is written inline (within the HTML) it just resides within <style> and </style> within <head> and </head> within <html> and </html> … have a read of Cascading Style Sheets Primer Tutorial or visit the “spiritual home” of HTML or CSS or Javascript at w3schools and learn at a fundamental level.
