Menu Web Sites

The Hierarchical Menu Script has found great success on the Web. It is even more popular on intranets allowing, as it does, for easier intra-company site navigation.

On this page you will find a selection of sites that use HM. It is by no means exhaustive.

Of course, the inclusion of any site in this list does not constitute an endorsement of the site or its content by DHTML Lab or Jupitermedia Corporation.

Nor does the site's inclusion mean that it has implemented HM in the most desirable or efficient manner.

The sites range from heavy-usage commercial to personal home pages. They will surely give you many pointers in HM implementation for your own site.

Notes:

A few high-profile companies and institutions using HM, bound by their internal regulations, have requested to not be included in this list. This is unfortunate. However, if your site is included here and you do not want it to appear, please use this link to request its exclusion:

Please Exclude My Site
Conversely, if you are using HM and wish to have your site listed, please use this link:

Please INCLUDE My Site
The sites listed were all using HM when they were initially included in the list. Site redesign or restructuring may mean that HM is excluded in the future. We cannot guarantee that HM will be in use when you visit, naturally.
We have decided not to list intranet use since it would be a vanity listing and of no use to new HM users.
