Displaying Links

[x-anubis-x]

hey guys so for one of my classes i need to help redesign part of my schools website. they want to make it more interactive and "up-to-date". one page just lists like 20-30 links that the user can go to. personally i think its really dull but i cant think of ways to make it more interactive or how to display the links in a more appealing manner.

right now it looks likes this

• link 1
• link 2
• link 3
• just like this for another 30 links

so any ideas how to spice it up? lol, thanks for any ideas/suggestions

Make a preview of the site when you hover over the link.

Make a bar with categories that create drop down menus with links.

Maybe post what you have at the moment, so we can see what the current design is.

The best way to do this is with unordered lists.

<ul id="meh">
    <li></li>
    <li>
       Catagory name
       <ul>
           <li></li>
       </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

These can be styled anyway you want and it's valid XHTML.
For example:

#meh{
    display: block;
    float: left;
}

Yeah, lists are good, especially when they are floated side by side.
