==== Overview  ====

CustomMenu is a unique bookmark extension for Netscape and Internet Explorer. The software
manages and displays a collection Web sites as dropdown menus on the browser's menu bar similar
to the regular browser's menu, letting you navigate a Web site like a menu item. It explores
Web sites faster and more efficient and is very useful for both personal users and Web 
developers.

For personal users, the software provides you with a collection of 800+
popular Web sites and shows the Web sites on the browser's menu bar as
dropdown menu. The Web site collection is classified to nine categories,
including business/money, news, living, education, sport, shopping, etc.
 The working behavior of the CustomMenu is similar to the common menu of 
the browser. After installation, the software sets a favorite on your 
Browser and icon (for default Browser) on your desktop. Thereafter you
are able to start CustomMenu either from desktop or Browser's Favorites.
With CustomMenu, you don't have to remember to type Web site addresses
for navigation of many popular sites, what you need to do is point-and-click
on the menu. The Web site collection is same for both Netscape and MS
Internet Explorer. As long as you install CustomMenu for Netscape and 
for MS Internet Explorer, you are able to  use the common Web collection
from either Netscape or IE. The software also provides a template and 
instructions for the users who hope to build their own CustomMenu Web
site collection or do some modification on the provided collection.

For Web developers, CustomMenu plug-in, being core of the software, is a
very powerful component to build your Web page. It provides a capability
to manage and display a large number of Web site indexes in multiple 
levels with a very small footprint on your Web page. Users can navigate
 what they want directly  from the Web indexes on the browser's menu bar,
instead of digging in on Web page more than once. In this way you could 
saves more valuable space of your Web page to display other information
 or advertisement instead of Web site indexes. In the Professional 
Edition, there are more instructions and samples to show you how to
create your CustomMenu Web site collection in CustomMenu.
