I am trying to create a design based upon the layout of windows 7 with task bar along the bottom and a start menu which will contain a comprehensive site navigation.
I have all of it working so far I am just having problems figuring out a javascript method for the opening the start menu.

What I need is to have the start button, when pressed it opens the menu (basically a hidden div which is shown upon press) so far so good, I have found a script that does this, however I also need to get it so that when an option in the menu is pressed or someone clicks outside the menu the menu closes.

My skills lie in xhtml/css & php javascript is still very new territory (adjusting jquery plugins)

Anyone out there know of a good method to accomplish this?
