Anyone use these or is it bad for SEO? I'm assuming it all depends on the way they are coded... what do you guys think?

you nailed it - depends on the code

not bad if you use CSS. i usually use some fancy CSS that styles an unordered list to be visible/not visible to users.

I like this guy's approach to straight css drop downs:

I doubt some well coded CSS menu would hurt your SEO.

yup that's exactly what i do. and if you have a plugin to turn off CSS (as any good webmaster should) you'll see all links are visible and "formatted" in a list.

CSS FTW - DHTML is ok but not as efficient - can be cooler looking though
