for fear of offending you further, i apologise in advance for posting
code. personally i'd be tempted to call 'test1(this)' on the mouseover
and mouseout events and have it do something like...
function test1(t) {
var c = $(t).css('background-color')
var o = '1'
if ( !$(t).hasClass('nav-active') )
o = '.2'
$('.nav-active').removeClass('nav-active')
$(t).addClass('nav-active')
.siblings()
.stop()
.fadeTo('slow', o);
$('#navigation').stop()
.animate({ backgroundColor: c }, 500);
}
this is literally back-of-fagpacket code, so clearly it could be
improved and/or tested. assigning a class just to track the opacity
state probably isn't the greatest idea ever but it does mean you have
easy access to the currently selected menu item.
