The XeoMenu applet takes an image and allows you to overlay menus on the
image. You define hotbox areas on the image and when the user
rolls the cursor into a hotbox, two things happen - first, the sub-image
in the hotbox changes appearance and second, a menu of menu items appears.
Menus and Menu ItemsTo the left is a screenshot of the XeoMenu in action. The cursor was moved into the hotbox labeled "Where Can I Read About...!" which causes the hotbox to change (the copy becomes italics) and a menu of eight menu items to appear. In the screenshot, the cursor is currently over the menu item labeled "Tutorial" which causes the menu item to highlight. If the user now clicks on the menu item, the browser would go to the HTML page that describes the Online Java Tutorial.
