Hello,
I am at a complete loss with this plugin, so I’m hoping someone here can help me. And if after reading my post, someone can come up with a better, less frustrating plugin, I would really appreciate it. The plug-in author’s site is: http://flesler.blogspot.com/2007/10/jqueryscrollto.html. The gist of it is that I am making a website for a restaurant. They want the menu to horizontally scroll between the sections of food, and within each section, have a vertically scrollable (via scroll bar) text menu in two columns. When you click on the section in the nav menu, it’s supposed to take you to that food section via horizontal animated scroll. The link below is the sample page I’m testing on, and an image is attached to show you the idea of what it’s supposed to look like:

That is the sample page with the JQuery.ScrollTo plugin installed. When I shrink the page, it looks like the animation is working (by the window scroll bars moving), just not correctly, since it’s not moving the divs.
Image of what each food section should look like:
Maybe this is a case of me not having the divs set up correctly with CSS? I’m not sure, I’ve dug myself into a messy hole… please help
