First, I commend Renderosity for adding a vendors selection at the bottom of the Marketplace dropdown button on the home page, and then re-installing a dropdown vendor list on the subsequent vendor page. Thank goodness for that (although you still have to go the vendor page to find it). Your coders might think about using a subfolder/submenu on the main page where the Marketplace dropdown is, and then at the bottom where the selection for the vendor page is found they could code a hover button or selection button for a submenu popup to the right or left of the vendor list, thus allowing the user to select the vendor immediately (or use it to find out the spelling - people don't always use things the way one assumes). There is Java code for this, and it should be easy for them to find it and adapt it for their use. It's called a JMenu and would be added as a child to the current JMenu or JPopupMenu. If they want to consider using that paradigm and can't find the code, let me know and I would be happy to e-mail a generic version of it to them. It would basically be a version of the CascadeMenu.java code, with which they are probably familiar (if they are using Java - otherwise I'm sure whatever language they are using would have similar code). Just a suggestion.
