I want to create a menu like the one on www.apple.com How can I do this? I have created images for the tabs, but I don't understand how to go on.

ive never done one personally, but there are a couple of ways to do it i know about.
1st way i know to do it is have the NavBar as an animated Gif, and each tab on it's own frame in the animation. So frame 2 will highlight button 2 and vice versa.
other way, is to have the navbar on all pages, but trick the page, byincluding a different graphic for the page name. example if your on contact.html, then the contact graphic will be a diff colour to the rest, simultaing a tab.
a few other things to consider, like swap/restore images behaviour to highlight them on MouseOver etc.. but thats basically how i'd do it.
