You could use something as simple and trouble free as a form's select tag,
or you could use a combination of javascript and absolutely positioned page
elements ('layers'), or you could use one of the many all-javascript
solutions available on the web.

Personally, I would never recommed the latter, as there are many unforseen
problems that may arise when you use them (particularly if you are not
experienced enough to anticipate them).

I always use the middle choice when I need such critters. By inserting,
positioning, and then hiding a layer to hold your subordinate choices, you
can easily reveal it when mousing over the top-level menu option. The trick
is to hide the layer after reading your choices. If you are interested, I
can explain that for you....
