I too did something like this. You can get the code from my demo page: http://www.dave-cohen.com/node/1186 Daniel Ruiz wrote: > > Basically the client I have doesn't want to use onclick to open a hidden > navigation but they also don't like the mouseover because a user may > move over it by accident.

This is exactly what my 'hovertips' do, see the above link. The tips appear if the mouse hovers over the active text for long enough. They disappear, but also after a short delay, so the user can move the mouse from the active text to the popup text. As long as the mouse is over either the active text or the popup, the popup will not disappear. -Dave _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
