Ok, so I am making a drop-down menu from This tutorial.
I am trying to make it so that when someone hovers over the word, the menu will come down (I don't want the click kind). Ok, so when I was done editing the links and stuff... the drop-box stopped working.
Here is the code for the part that goes inbetween the head tags:
CODE
<style type="text/css">

#dropmenudiv{
position:absolute;
border:1px solid #cfc09d;
border-bottom-width: 0;
font:normal 12px Verdana;
line-height:18px;
z-index:100;
}

#dropmenudiv a{
width: 100%;
display: block;
text-indent: 3px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #cfc09d;
padding: 1px 0;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
}

#dropmenudiv a:hover{ /*hover background color*/
background-color: #dcd5cd;
}

</style>

<script type="text/javascript">

var ie4=document.all

if (ie4||ns6)
document.write('<div id="dropmenudiv" style="visibility:hidden;width:'+menuwidth+';background-color:'+menubgcolor+'" onMouseover="clearhidemenu()" onMouseout="dynamichide(event)"></div>')

}
}
return edgeoffset
}

function populatemenu(what){
if (ie4||ns6)

}


function dropdownmenu(obj, e, menucontents, menuwidth){
if (window.event) event.cancelBubble=true

}

return clickreturnvalue()
}

function clickreturnvalue(){
if (ie4||ns6) return false
else return true
}

function contains_ns6(a, b) {
while (b.parentNode)
if ((b = b.parentNode) == a)
return true;
return false;
}

function dynamichide(e){
if (ie4&&!dropmenuobj.contains(e.toElement))
delayhidemenu()
else if (ns6&&e.currentTarget!= e.relatedTarget&& !contains_ns6(e.currentTarget, e.relatedTarget))
delayhidemenu()
}

function hidemenu(e){
if (typeof dropmenuobj!="undefined"){
if (ie4||ns6)
dropmenuobj.style.visibility="hidden"
}
}

function delayhidemenu(){
if (ie4||ns6)
delayhide=setTimeout("hidemenu()",disappeardelay)
}

function clearhidemenu(){
if (typeof delayhide!="undefined")
clearTimeout(delayhide)
}

if (hidemenu_onclick=="yes")
document.onclick=hidemenu

</script>

(I didn't edit anything I wasn't suposed to)

And here is the link part of it.
CODE
<a href="http://incoherentdreams.infamous-mind.net" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu1, '150px')" onMouseout="delayhidemenu()"><font size=5>Incoherent Dreams</font></a> |
<a href="http://incoherentdreams.infamous-mind.net/you/" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu2, '150px')" onMouseout="delayhidemenu()"><font size=5>You</font></a> |
<a href="http://incoherentdreams.infamous-mind.net/?x=3" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu3, '150px')" onMouseout="delayhidemenu()"><font size=5>Affiliates</font></a> |
<a href="http://incoherentdreams.infamous-mind.net" onClick="return clickreturnvalue()" onMouseover="dropdownmenu(this, event, menu4, '150px')" onMouseout="delayhidemenu()"><font size=5>Other</font></a><br>


Is there something that I'm doing wrong?
