You know what else is annoying? When you try to be a smart ass and can't even spell necessary correctly, it is REALLY ANNOYING. You know what else is REALLY ANNOYING? When you use a period instead of a comma because you don't know punctuation. What is the moral of this story? Don't be a smart ass unless you know how to use the spell checker.

Maybe the bad review is deserved, because THIS is the link he provided to get HELP for the BAD file that I had a helluva day with. How else would I get here? He offered this link as support for the Joomla plugin. Gosh this is so ridiculous. Thank you for explaining about jQuery though, I did wonder what it was because I've tested a few jQuery modules recently.

It has nothing to do with Joomla or the other "site" you're talking about. The way it works is some people create widgets using jQuery to help make life a little bit easier for web developers. One of these widgets is a Superfish menu which was written by 1 guy, it's not a commercial product, it's not an official part of jQuery, it's just a script somebody thought would be useful to others so he released it. It works great if you know how to use it, However if you have no idea what you're doing and try and drop it in some CMS you are probably going to run into problems, which is what this forum is for. To help you. The problem is you didn't want help. You wanted to vent your frustrations at something that you obviously didn't understand, that is not what this forum is for.
