Thanks to francky for the reply. I wanted to document my solution to this issue. There was a weird quark between the "onMouseOut" javascript I was using on the position:absolute ULs and the box content they were layering over. Then the mouse would intersect one of these element even while still being positioned over the UL take it would invoke the onMouseOut event.
After spinning my wheels for almost a day without a solution I removed the onMouseOut handler and replaced it with onMouseUp and onKeyPress handlers assigned to the <BODY>. This causes the navigation to work much more like a standard application menu bar which in some ways is preferable. For reference, if anyone has encountered similar behavior and found a solution I would still be interested in knowing. -- Daniel On 5/7/06 8:27 PM, "francky" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Daniel Pape wrote: > >> I suppose this is technically a javascript question >> >> although this is my >> first standards based site and this is the first time my code has not >> worked as I have used this successfully under tables based designs. >> >> I am using a javascript to SHOW and HIDE my navigation constructed in UL >> lists.
