//Version 1.1 (Feb 19th, 2010): Each flex menu (UL) can now be associated with a link dynamically, and/or defined using JavaScript instead of as markup.

//Usage: $(elementselector).addflexmenu('menuid', options)
//ie:
//jQuery(document).ready(function($){
//$('a.mylinks').addflexmenu('flexmenu1') //apply flex menu with ID "flexmenu1" to links with class="mylinks"
//})

//***** NO NEED TO EDIT BEYOND HERE
