I am using jquery and I got a couple plugins that don't offer a minified version. So I want to take the full version and minfiy it but all the sites I have found that you input your javascript and it minifies it breaks the plugin.

Like it must strip something out because I get a syntax error.

So anyone got a good one that I can use?

If you're familiar with Java you could also use YUI compressor to minify JS (and CSS) files yourself. We use it here as well and it works great.
