That's probably misleading debugging information. The problem is that your jquery include is commented out.

Another extremely tool for debugging javascript in firefox that you might not yet be aware of is firebug. You should definitely give it a try!

You need to uncomment the script calls, 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"  href="css/style.css" />
<script type="text/jscript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.js" > </script>
<script type="text/jscript" src="js/menu.js" > </script>

The line where you include jQuery has the beginning of a comment at the beginning.

Since the line is invalid, the two browsers are handling it differently. IE is seeing the line as a comment. Firefox is not, and is therefore including jQuery.

Change:

<!--<script type="text/jscript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.js" > </script>

to

<script type="text/jscript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.js" ></script>
