It happened after going to D7.  Flyovers for things like buttons 
cause the cbx to close - firing the oncloseup event stuffing things 
up.  At some sites, they cant get it to drop down as the mous is 
parked on a strategic spot which keeps firing the flyover - while they 
battle with the keyboard to use the cbx.

Are you saying that this doesnt happen in your apps ?  If so, 
something must be unique about the buttons I am using.
