You aren't going to get something out of the box which does 100% what you need, that tutorial works fine and I got it to have a black background perfectly easily by editing the "background" property in the CSS, I then changed the background to transparent and that worked too. If you need help to learn then you're in the right place but it seems like you're expecting your work to be done for you.

Sorry, but we all have learn in order to get things done!

If you need a few pointers on how to change the css let us know.

The problem with using layers is that if you are designing for multiple screen resolutions, using the fixed and absolute positioning attributes your layer will 'float' above the static elements of the page and stay put when you resize the window.

you should use the relative positioning property and stick all of your other content inside a parent layer to ensure it all stays put.

I build a CSS menu from scratch on my site that uses javascript. Take a look

incidentally, it won't display correctly in Opera or Konqueror despite the fact the site is W3C Compliant.

Anyone know some Opera CSS hacks?

You might want to look into the use of DHTML menus. They are the best form of menu for requiring drop in/outs, in my opinion. Google around.

If you want a menu like the one you linked to above your best bet would be to look around for a script that would do it for you. Try google or hotscripts.com. Just make sure the one you decide to use works in as many browsers sas possible.

I can't really tell without seeing any code, but you might need to add "position: fixed;"
