508 Compliance

Numerous architectural modifications have been made to make the markup 508 compliant.

IE compatibiliy

Hover mode in v.1.1 only worked in IE 10+, the new release works in 8+.

Category links

Some twitchy behavior with the linked main menu items has been fixed by changing the way links are implemented. When links are enabled, ALL main category items are now wrapped in an <a> tag. If no url is assigned to a category, its anchor will have an href of "#" and a "no-link" class.
