Well i would like to have this cind of menu, but not chat and all this stuff.
Just a manu that allways shows @ the site. And a text CLICK ME.
When someone clicks on it a window go up < in this image aplications > but i would like to have my own html code in it.
What is the name of such a menu? Drop up box?
PS. It will be used in WORDPRESS.

I call it a stalker bar, since it follows you everywhere you go :|
It's easy to add, just create a menu as normal and add set position:fixed; in the CSS and set the distance.
 
Yes, as snowmanrene said, you just need to create a div and put "position: fixed" in CSS.

If you want to put a "Click here" button to open the tab, I recommend you to try something in jQuery, start with animate() and addClass().
 
Ok.
Thank you for the answers, so its somecind of bar then.

Well i found a plugin which describes more what i want / am searching for.
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/announcement-bar/

Cant get that plugin working, i relly tryed / am cind a good @ wordpress.
Anyways thats exactly what i want but also exandeble, so if click on \\ click me \\ the announcement expands and more text shows up.

Anyone know any code for this function?
 
If you want complete compatibility, including older browsers such as IE7 (yes, apparently some people still use that POS), then fixed positioning is a no no. If you're going to use it, make sure you add additional code that sets the position to one of the other values (relative, absolute etc) for older browsers.

This may be going a tad offtopic, but you can also check out this as a guide for targeting IE7 et al.
