                                <div><span>Websites</span></div>
                                <ul>
                                    <li>
                                        <div><span>Website 1</span></div>
                                    </li>
                                    <li>
                                        <div><span>Website 2</span></div>
                                    </li>
                                    <li>
                                        <div><span>Website 3</span></div>
                                    </li>
                                    <li>
                                        <div><span>Website 4</span></div>
                                    </li>
                                </ul>
                            </li>
                            <li>
                                <div><span>Website design</span></div>
                            </li>
                            <li>
                                <div><span>Javascript</span></div>
                            </li>
                        </ul>
                    </li>
                </ul>
            </div>

And then initialize the menu

window.addEvent('domready',function(){


    // The simple way
    $('nav').MooDropMenu();



    // The more advanced way
    $('nav').MooDropMenu({
        onOpen: function(el){
            el.fade('in')
        },
        onClose: function(el){
            el.fade('out');
        },
        onInitialize: function(el){
            el.fade('hide').set('tween',{duration:1000});
        }
    });


    // Using the MooDropMenuClass
    var dropMenu = new MooDropMenu($('nav'),{
        onOpen: function(el){
            el.fade('in')
        },
        onClose: function(el){
            el.fade('out');
        },
        onInitialize: function(el){
            el.fade('hide').set('tween',{duration:1000});
        }
    });

}
