i must admit I didn't check your website, and therefore, I couldn't realize you've been already using jQuery and Dojo. But in that case, I'm totally agreed with what Lorin said.
However, Menumatic works fine without JS, it will just degrade to a standard CSS menu system with no scripting. May be you should check it out and give it a try. Here is the link: http://greengeckodesign.com/menumatic Finally, MooTools has been proven to be faster than any other namespaced JS framework, it has a smaller size and is modular, which means you can pick up only the plugins you need (along with their dependencies, of course). While is true that jQuery has a larger number of plugins and community members, I think it is definitively an option to keep an eye on. Furthermore, jQuery is compatible with MooTools 1.3 (as far as I know), and you can get it to work with older versions of MooTools by reimplementing the jQuery's noConflict() function.
