===================================================
XHTML/CSS/DHTML Semantically correct drop down menu
===================================================
Author: Sam Hampton-Smith
Site: http://www.hampton-smith.com

Description:	This script takes a nested set of <ul>s
		and turns it into a fully functional
		DHTML menu. All that is required is 
		the correct use of class names, and
		the application of some CSS.
		
Use:		Please leave this information at the
		top of this file, and it would be nice
		if you credited me/dropped me an email
		to let me know you have used the menu.
