<div>I generally do this from scratch, though combinations of menu_block and nice_menus may suffice.</div>
<div><br></div>Drupal ships with jQuery, so it is best to use that library for animations. The Drupal.behaviors syntax is the proper implementation, which is not well-documented, but there are many examples in Drupal core/contrib and perhaps some blog post tutorials on the web.

<div>If the JS is particular to a single theme, the best way to add the file is generally via <a href="http://drupal.org/node/171205#scripts" target="_blank">http://drupal.org/node/171205#scripts</a></div>

<div>Yes, CSS would probably do 80% of what I want, I will google for how to exactly do the theming bit. Would throwing in some java script give me enough to do some animation-effects? </div>

<div>What do you mean by "nice?" If you are simply after better aesthetics, making CSS changes to your theme (create a custom theme or a subtheme, don't hack core) is probably your best option.</div>

<div>Hi,
<div><br></div>
<div>I am using <b>book</b> menu's in<b> Drupal 7 </b>but want to make them look nice. I found the<b> 'nice menus' module</b>, but I was not able to make my book menus nicer with it. Most hints and tips I find on this subject seem to be for Drupal 6...</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Any hints on how to do this or where to look?</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
