Feature: Pull-Down Archive Menu

At Funke's request, I'm putting up the code for the pull-down archives in my sidebar. This will only work in movable type. Blogger uses different code.

Category Archives
To do this for your category list, make sure that you have category archiving selected as an archiving option in your weblog config.

Monthly Archives

Make sure you put it in your main index code. You will want to div class it with however you divide your other items in your sidebar. Let me know if doesn't work.

For Blogger (I just did it for the wife ) you can follow the instructions at http://hackosphere.blogspot.com/2006/08/drop-down-labels-blogger-beta-hack.html

Thanks so much! I have one more question for you...(if you aren't sick of my questions yet): do you know how to make a dropdown menu for external links (say a menu labeled "Friends" that would allow you to navigate to their sites)?

Wait, actually, I can't get the links to work properly, even in the regular "category" and "archive" menus.
