I need to get a menu (below) to work with Drupal. I don’t care how it gets done be it JS, CSS or what have you, I just need to match this type of function within Drupal 6.x and using the graphics rather than text. I’m not looking for someone to do it for me, just push me in the right direction to get it done.
You would just need to set up some classes so you can target each LI with a specific image. You will find just about every variation of menus in that second link.
I would encourage you to set up an image replacement technique though so your menu still makes sense if the viewer has images disabled.
