Although not a science/math site, it you want to play around with HTML5,
CSS3, and JavaScript, try jsFiddle.net. Here's one where I was playing
around with cascading menus and
animation<http://jsfiddle.net/RussAbbott/6xQpZ/52/>using pure CSS3 (no
JavaScript). Hover the mouse over the elements in the
lower right quadrant. Here are two more simpler ones that fool around with
cascading menus: http://goo.gl/lfgGP and http://goo.gl/jVrSz.

The DOM is the hottest virtual machine. And you can change it on the fly.
This has been around for a while, of course, but with HTML5 and CSS3 (and
jQuery and other libraries and frameworks) the client-side world has really
taken off.
