Wayfinder/JS Problem

I think wayfinder is working right on my site, because it's generating the proper menu tree like:

</ul></li>
<li class="category "><a href="index.php?id=31" title="Milling">Milling</a><ul style="display:none">
  <li class="first"><a href="index.php?id=38" title="Viking">Viking</a></li>

<li><a href="index.php?id=39" title="Excalibur">Excalibur</a></li>
<li><a href="index.php?id=40" title="MacDev">MacDev</a></li>
<li><a href="index.php?id=101" title="Merlin/Cocker">Merlin/Cocker</a></li>
<li class="last"><a href="index.php?id=41" title="Other">Other</a><ul style="display:none">
  <li class="first"><a href="index.php?id=124" title="test contact">test contact</a></li>

</ul></li>

You can see it's inserting the tag

<ul style="display:none">

in the proper locations, but only the first level is exanding, and not the second level. Any ideas what could be going wrong with my site?

         &outerTpl=`mh.outer`
         &innerTpl=`mh.inner`
         &rowTpl=`mh.row`

mh.inner:

<ul style="display:none">
  [[+wf.wrapper]]
</ul>

mh.innerRow

<li[[+wf.classes]]>
  <a href="[[+wf.link]]" title="[[+wf.title]]">[[+wf.linktext]]</a>
  [[+wf.wrapper]]
</li>

Didn't see the link you'd provided.

Wayfwd call is fine, more to do with the CSS. Quick glance and think it's to do with the overflow hidden and the nested ul's need some left values.

Does it work as a static page, if you've not tired i'd get it working flat html file first.

So it seems wayfinder is doing its job

Well since:

only the first level is exanding, and not the second level

It would seem that it is probably the javascript (I am assuming this is a js driven drop down menu) is not working - of course it could be that in fact wayfinder is not creating the html that the script needs.
Need to do more research or have more information to figure out anything more.
One last thought - since the first level is expanding it would seem that the script is working, which tend to point towards either incorrect html or initial css and not to the moo tools/jquery not getting along or to the script itself.
