## Basics
-Drilldowns use the standard [Menu](menu.html#nested-style) syntax. Add the attribute `data-drilldown` to the root `<ul>`, and `.menu` to each nested menu.
+Drilldowns use the standard [Menu](menu.html#nested-style) syntax, using `<ul>`, `<li>`, and `<a>`. Add `data-drilldown` to the root menu to set up the drilldown.
+To create sub-menus, place a `<ul>` *next to* an `<a>`. Clicking that `<a>` will then open the `<ul>` it's next to.
+
+Any `<a>` without a submenu will function like a normal link.
+
+```html
+<ul class="vertical menu" data-drilldown>
+ <li>
+ <a href="#">Item 1</a>
+ <ul class="vertical menu">
+ <li><a href="#">Item 1A</a></li>
+ <!-- ... -->
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
+</ul>
+```
<ul class="vertical menu" data-drilldown style="width: 200px" id="m1">
<li>
</li>
<li><a href="#"> Item 4</a></li>
</ul>
+

+
+## Custom Styling
+
+The drilldown plugin automatically adds a back button to the top of each nested menu. To style this control, target the `.js-drilldown-back` class:
+
+```css
+.js-drilldown-back {
+ // ...
+}
+```
