Seriously though, I think you will find that jQuery can not currently stop animations mid-way through. If it begins, it will animate fully and then remember to do the closing animation if you moused out in the meantime. I think the ability to stop animations mid-way is planned for a future release of jQuery. In the meantime I highly recommend looking at Brian Cherne's hoverIntent plugin as it will definitely help cut down on triggering unwanted animations for menus like this. Good luck. Joel Birch.
