I will try in another way. Thanks, I will close the topic.

I’m putting this in header.php

<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/postheadingtitle.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
    function startMarquee() {

    var menuItemWidth = $(this).width();
    var listItemWidth = $(this).parent().width();

    if(menuItemWidth > listItemWidth) {
        var scrollDistance = menuItemWidth - listItemWidth;
        var listItem = $(this).parent();

        listItem.stop();

        listItem.animate({scrollLeft: scrollDistance}, 1000, 'linear');
    }
}

function stopMarquee() {
    var listItem = $(this).parent();

    listItem.stop();

    listItem.animate({scrollLeft: 0}, 'medium', 'swing');
}

$('#menu a').hover(startMarquee, stopMarquee);

//--></script>

and this in content.php to test:
<ul id="menu"><a href="#"><li>testing java script failing</li></a></ul>
