best method for simple web menu

My goal is to have a vertical text menu with about 10 boxes. I’d also like to incorporate rollovers for each one. I’d like to make them with a unique font I have installed on this workstation.
Should I start with Photoshop as a table or something – then go to Imageready for the rollovers? Should I just start with Imageready?
I’d like them to be editable, as I may need to change fonts, size, position, links etc

Sorry in advance, I know the question is sort of broad. I just need a good starting point.

You do realise that unless you include the text as an image the font changes dependent upon what the fonts the viewer has installed?

A good starting point would be Fireworks, or even better Dreamweaver and Fireworks. Personally I’d rather hand code than use IR which is a complete dog.

However, if that’s all you’ve got then do it in IR. But be prepared for it to screw up any code royally.
