I think it's fixed.  I used a combination of the single image technique and the JS referenced before.
Although, i just tried turning off the JS and it still worked.  I wonder if it is harmless.  Hmm, now I am wondering.  Should I remove it.
 
Now, I am just noticing that the top nav is not highlighting the words properly...its happening sporadically.  Nuts.
This thing is like Mr. Blandings Dream House.  It never gets finished.

Hey Glen,

 
I use the hover/unhover background in the same graphic approach on a bunch of sites, and it works really well. No _javascript_ needed. 

 
On my blog, I use it in conjunction with an image-replacement technique. 
So the html looks like this:

 
<h1><a href="" Rules</a>

 
and the css looks like this:

 
h1 a {
  display: block;
  width: 111px;
  height: 67px;
  text-indent: -9000px;
  background: url(/images/2006/logo-sub.jpg) no-repeat left top;
  overflow: hidden;
}
h1 a:hover {
  background: url(/images/2006/logo-sub.jpg) no-repeat 0 -67px; 
}

 
and the image looks like this:

 

 
I would have just used the background hover/unhover stuff without the image replacement for the text if I hadn't decided to do the semi-transparent thing. 

 
It shouldn't take much to implement something similar on your site. 

 
Let me know if you need any help. I live for this stuff.

 
Cheers,
Karl

This approach stops load time by including hover and unhover backgrounds in the same graphic.
This other one uses css to preload the hover image.

I think that technique is called double-buffering.  I can do that, but is there a better way?  It also seems like it is a little slow.

I've tried positioning the background tab image on both the "A" *and*
the "LI" elements. If the hover on the "A" flickers, the image in the
"LI" behind it shows through instead of a white background.
