jQuery Drop Down Hover Menu

Question

I\'m new to jQuery, I was hoping you guys could help me. I\'m trying to make a hover dropdown menu, but it\'s extremely buggy. Can you help me clean up my Javascript? Loo

You can do something like this:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(".hoverli").hover(
        function() {
            $('ul.file_menu').stop(true, true).slideDown('medium');
        },
        function() {
            $('ul.file_menu').stop(true, true).slideUp('medium');
        }
    });
});

And here an example with sub-menus:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(".hoverli").hover(
        function() {
            $('ul.file_menu').slideDown('medium');
        },
        function() {
            $('ul.file_menu').slideUp('medium');
        }
    );

    $(".file_menu li").hover(
        function() {
            $(this).children("ul").slideDown('medium');
        },
        function() {
            $(this).children("ul").slideUp('medium');
        }
    );
});
