    First off I should say I don't understand javascript at all. I took this code from a site which had a drop down menu I liked (forget which site it was) and deleted all the unnecessary other functions that the Firefox Error Console complained about, but it says:

    "Error: navigation is not defined"

    What needs doing to keep it happy?

    <script type="text/javascript">

    Event.observe(window,'load', function() {

    navigation();

    navigation = function() {

    if(document.all&&document.getEle... {
    $$("#navbar>ul>li").each(functio... {
    li.onmouseover = function() {
    li.addClassName('hover');
    }
    li.onmouseout = function() {
    li.removeClassName('hover');
    }
    });
    }

    };
    // For consistency sake, add all the script.aculo.us effects
    Effect = Object.extend({}, Effect);

    // Similar to Event.findElement
    Object.extend(Element,{
    findElement: function(element, tagName) {
    var element = $(element);

    while (element.parentNode && (!element.tagName ||
    (element.tagName.toUpperCase() != tagName.toUpperCase())))
    element = element.parentNode;

    return $(element);
    }
    });

    });</script>

    Any help much appreciated

    var navigation = function() {
    [...]
    }

    navigation();

    try calling the function after the declaration and not before.
