  Good point, hadn't thought of that.  Still leaves the question of 
wording but.

  I'm still not convinced!  Cancel the following of the link, which 
hasn't happened, or cancel (=collapse) the menu?  I feel my concern is 
with the label itself, not its function, even though that is new to me. 
 How about 'close'?
