a html comment tag is -->
a javascript comment tag is //
so we need to combine them //--> so both are supported otherwise the javascript could think the -- or > is part of the code

You don't really need to use the comment tags nowadays but as Abhishek points out it is good coding practice, so use them

Good JS habits, thassall.

Can I just ask you what that does? Like Busy's quote says...involve me and I learn...

After a brief look through the code, I've come to think you might be missing a chunk of script somewhere. Most likely you need to include a .js file DW might've created.

Are you sure you've got all the necessary files sourced/linked/included? To check, does DW have any instructions or help on this?

PS: your page takes eons to load (56k). You've resized your images with HTML to make the thumbnails. The images look smaller, but users still have to download the whole big file. Kinda defeats the purpose of thumbnailing.

Is this one of those dynamic fly-out menus? Didn't we try to talk you out of that before? Or was that someone else?

Anywat, I'll move this over to Web Authoring in the hopes that one of the Javascript experts can pick it up there. These menu scripts do tend to be very complicated and difficult to debug, so good luck!

Errors I got:
Line: 81
Char: 3
Error: 'Menu' is undefined.

Line: 285
Char: 1
Error: Object Expected

Looks like a poorly written js menu from DW. To long and modular to debug by just looking at it. You might consider deleting it and re-inserting.

Just mouse over the nav.

First before the page had loaded I got:

A Runtime Error has occured. Do you wish to Debug? Line: 80

I then get loads on mouseover, saying:

A Runtime Error has occured. Do you wish to Debug? Line: xyz

What kind of errors are you getting?
