Responsive navigation menu

Hi, everyone.

I'm trying to evaluate whether the responsive navigation solution at
http://lukaszfiszer.github.io/selectnav.js/ is accessible. It takes a
regular HTML unordered list used for navigation and converts it to a drop
down menu at smaller screen widths. Since I'm not a Javascript expert at
all, I can't tell exactly what it's doing. I AM able to tab to the drop
down at smaller screen sizes and navigate it with the up and down arrows,
so it seems keyboard-navigable to me. But I have no idea how a
screenreader would handle it or if there are other accessibility red
flags.

If anybody's willing to give it a quick look, I'd really appreciate your
opinions.

Thanks very much,
Jan Heck
