English term or phrase: drop-down and pull-down menu
Is there any difference?

Context:

JavaScript embedded in anchor tags, drop-down menus, and pull-down menus can cause many headaches for a Web site looking to be indexed by the major search engines.

Thanks a lot!

Creo que es lo mismo
Explanation:
pull-down menu
(n.) Also called a drop-down menu, a menu of commands or options that appears when you select an item with a mouse. The item you select is generally at the top of the display screen, and the menu appears just below it, as if you had pulled it down.

In Spanish I think it is menú desplegable.

Explanation:
También creo que es lo mismo aunque si quieres dos traducciones se me ocurren las que te pongo arriba aunque quede redundante (el inglés también).

pull-down menu
(Or "drop-down menu", "pop-down menu") A menu in a graphical user interface, whose title is normally visible but whose contents are revealed only when the user activates it, normally by pressing the mouse button while the pointer is over the title, whereupon the menu items appear below the title. The user may then select an item from the menu or click elsewhere, in either case the menu contents are hidden again.
