Well now, that's not a menu, is it? It's just a clickable link. D'ye
want a drop-down menu here? If so you need a <select> probably inside a
<form>. I don't know whether you want a static menu (by which I mean it
doesn't change during the life of the application) or whether you need
to load it up with stuff read from a database.

If you code it up to do that. Or you can use clientside javascript to
assign something to the href property.

>Oh, and what's the opposite of "visibility"? Like, how do I *show* something?

Why don't you google for such as "html visibility" or "css visibility"?
Mostly stuff is visible by default and you have to explicitly hide it.
