This is what I think you meant:

you can use a combination of the hover() event and the toggle() event

$("ul").hover(
    function(){ $("li", this).toggle(); }
);

But if you literally meant hiding the ul after mouseout of the li then try this:

$("ul li").mouseout(
    function(){ $(this).closest("ul").hide(); }
);

I would think s/he meant hiding the "li" as well b/c hiding the ul will also hide the menu.

@nolabel right... which seems a little odd, but who knows what it's for
