Problem in active item in my menu

Problem in active item in my menu

Hi,

I am new for JQuery. I get a jquery script and customized that.

Customized script: http://www.banyanseed.com/menu
I got from: http://roshanbh.com.np/examples/sleek-smooth-hover-menu/ [last one]


After customized I face few problems

1. Text color of active item after hover the each item
2. I unable to mask to active menu item when startup.

Note: please check it also set the menu background white by set background:#fff (instead of #000) in "ul.nav li" under "Style" tag.

doubt: $('.active') will work? when I give class="first active" in "Home" menu item, if no, what I do.

Please help me to resolve the problems

Thank you
