You can do that with a combination of Javascript, CSS and HTML or XHTML.
One can write Javascript, CSS and HTML inside a JSP along with dynamic code.
You can use HTML list items, and make them appear horizontally, take a look at: http://alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns/
Also if you want to recursively generate menus (dynamically), from data that is stored in an XML file here's a tutorial:

But the Sun's menu is not created recursively nor is it created with HTML list item.
It is created with Span and Anchor tags, and underneath each Anchor is a Div tag - All these are HTML tags , and then there's some styling with CSS and finally Javascipt is used.
JSPs support all the above technologies.
