If you are looking for the drop-down menus, the finished version, with drop-downs and two levels of pop-outs, is Fig 7.28 in the download zip file. View the final version of the dropdown menu.
Also, by popular request, here's a vertical version of Fig 7.27, which several people have written to request. Click to view, right-click and select "save Target As..." to download.
Note also that the hover behavior file csshover.htc (see page 193), which enables IE6 to respond to hovers (rollovers) on all elements and not just links, has been updated for Windows XP2. You can obtain the updated csshover file direct from the source at the webssite of its author, JavaScript genius Peter Nederlof.
