do you mean the navigation menu (with Latest/Info/Media etc)? that's done in javascript and if you want something like that you're best off doing a search for it in google but remember it's not going to work for everyone in every browser.

Or did you mean the "hover" effect for a link that when the mouse moves over it, it goes from normal to underlined and changes colour? That's done through CSS:

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
a:link, a:visited, a:active {
color: #00FF00;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover {
color: #FF0000;
text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>
That would make normal, previously visited and active (when they have focus) links show up in blue and when in hover (with the mouse cursor over it) it'll turn to red underlined.
& this would go before the </head> tag in your html file or can be in a seperate file. Try searching for some CSS tutorials if you're not familiar with it or try a program like TopStyle that will take care of it for you.
