         });


$('#section1').hoverIntent(navSelect('.interior','0px'));
$('#section2').hoverIntent(navSelect('.exterior','100px'));
$('#section3').hoverIntent(navSelect('.view','200px'));

function navSelect(section,selectorPosition){
 return function(evt){
  if ( $(section).is(':hidden')){
  $('.subSection').fadeOut(250);
  $(section).delay(250).fadeIn(250);
  $('#selector').animate({"left":selectorPosition},250);
  }}}


         });
</script>

.hover works just fine, but when i use hoverIntent it does absolutely nothing.

    hoverIntent doesn’t have a single in/out function overload, from the main page:

    jQuery .hover() can take both a handlerIn and a handlerOut, /or/ just a handlerIn. My .hoverIntent() plug-in takes both handlerIn and handlerOut, /or/ a single configuration object. It was not designed to take just a handlerIn like .hover(). The next version (r6) will be more flexible.

    So to get what you want, you either have to pass the same method twice, like this:

    $('#section1').hoverIntent(navSelect('.interior','0px'), navSelect('.interior','0px'));

    Or, a bit cleaner, you can use the object overload, and pass it once but change your navSelect to return that object instead, like this:

    function navSelect(section,selectorPosition){
  var func = function(evt){
    if ( $(section).is(':hidden')) {
      $('.subSection').fadeOut(250);
      $(section).delay(250).fadeIn(250);
      $('#selector').animate({"left":selectorPosition},250);
    }
  }
  return { over: func, out: func };
}
