I have released TP_DropDownMenu. This is a flexible and highly re-usable JavaScript drop-down menu that I wrote. It supports many animations, easing functions, and other developer-specified settings. Examples provided within.

About me

My name is Thom Patterson. If you haven't figured this out by now your tree obviously doesn't reach the top branch.

I live in the dairy state (the real dairy state, Wisconsin, none of this California garbage!). In May 2007 I graduated from Carroll University with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science. Or as I like to say, I have a B.S. in C.S. from C.U. My 3 emphases were Software Engineering, Internet Software Development, and Information Systems.

I am married to a very beautiful woman. We've been married now for 114 weeks, 6 days, 23 hours, and 4 minutes, and I look forward to spending the rest of my life with her.

I am working for a large organization as a web developer. Usually I don't care about programming anymore when I get back from work, but every once and a while I get a new boost of energy, and it is at these times that I create my personal projects. This website is not only one of those projects, but also where some of those projects end up.
