A must? Oh pshaw. I think they are quite annoying, as they flash about
as I move the mouse from, say, scrollbar to Back button. I guess your
customer is more interested in the glitz. :-(
A few seconds at Google turns up these, and there are lots more:

http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/final_drop.html
http://meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/menus/demo.html
http://www.seoconsultants.com/css/menus/tutorial/
http://www.opencube.com/
Now, I have not tried any of these, because I have always been able to
talk my clients out of using them. Usually by taking them to a site like
http://mlb.com or
http://www.accuweather.com/
and waving the mouse around a bit.
They are also very difficult to use for anyone with motor deficiencies,
or blind users, or people with text-only browsers, etc etc. Hopefully,
no visitors who operate their computers by using a pencil in their mouth
will visit your site. :-/
