Hi , Does anyone know of a menu editor that would allow me to create a circular rotating menu for a website ?

Hiya Crag, not sure what you mean by rotating? The circular part you could do pretty easy with CC's image mapper, just not sure how you want to fit rotating in there?

Hi Craig, Jo Ann is right, but there's an image mapper on the HTML editor if you use CoffeeCup's editor.

Otherwise flash is your best bet for navigation animation.

I would have thought that there would be plenty of JQuery plugins to do this. I guess Flash would be the easiest method to achieve a circular animated menu.

here is one example of an animated carousel.

Using an image map won't work with an animated object as the map uses static coordinates while the image is animated.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

I didnt think of the carousel. I guess I was just thinking round.

I was thinking circular, too, like a clock. But I couldn't find any. I thought for sure there would be a JQuery plugin for something like that. I guess not.

Yea, most of jquery navigation, with the exception of the slider on my website, are really meant to spruce up traditional css styled menus.
