Add CSS based dropdown menu to blogger

In this post I will show you how to add a stylish CSS based dropdown menu to your blogger blog. This dropdown menu is purely created in CSS.  No JavaScript code is used for creating this navigation menu. It is very lightweight dropdown navigation menu because it uses only  CSS and HTML. It does not effect  loading time of the blog.
