Hi, and welcome to jQuery. I'm a relative newcomer myself, but I can tell you that what you'll hear a lot of times is "show us your code".
And I think this is a good occasion for that. Can you post your code and, especially, can you provide a link to a demo site where you attempts can be viewed? Assistance will be much quicker that way. It could be a lot of things, and usually, those that are more experienced can spot common problems quickly.
