Answer 1

Sorry if it is boring, but here is an another example yet. Here we have an horizontaly foldable bar:

#slideout {
    position: fixed;

    top: 0px;
    height: 10px;
    left: 0px;
    right: 0px;

    background-color: yellow;
    -webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    -moz-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    -o-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    transition-duration: 0.3s;
    -webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s;
}

#slideout:hover {
    top: 50px;
    background-color: cyan;
}

#slideout_inner {
    position: fixed;

    top: -50px;
    height: 50px;
    left: 0px;
    right: 0px;

    background-color: red;
    -webkit-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    -moz-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    -o-transition-duration: 0.3s;
    transition-duration: 0.3s;
}

#slideout:hover #slideout_inner {
    top: 0px;
    left: 0px;
    right: 0px;
    background-color: magenta;
}

The colors are a litle bite creazy, but this serv as to better illustrate. Cheers!
