Prototype menu

Question

Does anyone know of a good javascript menu using the prototype library. I need to produce a list of links available for each row of a HTML table as a hover/click dropdown menu.

Constraints

• The list of links is the same for every row, however, a link needs to post an id param unique to the row.
• The table is in a scroll pane, so the menu needs to know if if should render itself on the other side of the associated HTML element (e.g. TD) if necessary for visiblity.

I've found some a nice plugin for the JQuery library, but don't currently use JQuery and would like to avoid adding it if possible. I am already using prototype 1.6.

The author of the blog post below has used prototype to create a drop-down JS menu. I don't think it fits the bill for everything you're looking for, but it should give you a starting point.
