So, I found this script on a tutorial for working with javascript. I'm extremely new, and I don't know how to make the adjustment that I'm looking for.
The script is for a menu, when you click one of the top menu items, it drops down a couple more. My issue, is that when I click one of the main items, I must click it again to make it go away. I was hoping that once I clicked off the menu, or into another menu item, it would 'hide' the other menu selections.
Here is the script:
Any help would be appreciated.

var arrMenus = this.getElementsByClassName(document, 'ul', sContainerClass);
var arrSubMenus, oSubMenu, oLink;
for (var i = 0; i < arrMenus.length; i++) {
arrSubMenus = arrMenus[i].getElementsByTagName('ul');
for (var j = 0; j < arrSubMenus.length; j++) {
oSubMenu = arrSubMenus[j];
oLink = oSubMenu.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('a')[0];
oLink.onclick = function(){toggleMenu.toggle(this.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('ul')[0], sHiddenClass); return false;}
this.toggle(oSubMenu, sHiddenClass);
}
}
},
toggle : function(el, sHiddenClass) {
var oRegExp = new RegExp("(^|\\s)" + sHiddenClass + "(\\s|$)");
el.className = (oRegExp.test(el.className)) ? el.className.replace(oRegExp, '') : el.className + ' ' + sHiddenClass; // Add or remove the class name that hides the element
},
