Joe:

Your solution looks complicated to me. I would use a simple image 
replacement technique as shown here:

http://webbytedd.com/bb/replace-image1/

That will work to solve your problem. The css is there for you to 
review. This technique is pure css and no javascript is used.

You might also investigate tool tips via the title attribute. That 
might be of service to you.

The rollover can become more complicated as shown here:

Note that not only do you see an image replacement, but text appears. 
This demo is also pure css.

As I said in the demo:

This is simply a replacement image technique. It works for all modern 
browser. IE6 has problems with this demo simply because there are too 
many items for IE6 to manage. If the map contained less than five 
states, then this technique would work in IE6 (believe it or not).

Cheers,

tedd
