No, not necessarily. It depends on how many different blocks of three images
you need to use.
This method uses a single combined 3 image block for a vertical menu and works
cross-browser:
You'd need to set inline params for a horizontal menu.
It doesn't cater for sub-items, but once you have mastered this, it's a fairly
easy progression.
HTML:
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="item1.html">Item1</a></li>
<li><a href="item2.html">Item2</a></li>
<!-- and as many more or less <li> items as you need -->
</ul>
</div>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CSS
#menu {
/* Create box/position for menu with a background image if required */
}
#menu ul {
/* Set position and padding/margins of <ul> within menu box */
}
#menu li { /* Remove <li> defaults */
list-style:none;
}
#menu li a {
background-image:url(3 part single image url goes here);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position:0 0;
/* Set width, height etc */
}
#menu li a:hover {
background-position:0 -73px; /* Change position to suit image sizes */
}
#menu li a:active {
background-position:0 -146px; /* Change position to suit image sizes */
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just add appropriate sizes and positions to suit your images, and remove anchor
default coloring as necessary.
