What browser are you using?
If it's IE 5.5, I am having a similar problem with the *old* dynlayer api.
It seems that plain html text on a layer is an object that gets events in
IE 5.5 and (possibly) deprives the underlying layer or div from hearing
about the event.
Is this plausible?
In my case, when the mouse passes over the html text, the div gets an
onmouseout event, even though the text is within the div. This causes the
div to appear unselected. This does *not* happen in IE 5.0 or NS 4.x.
Would also love to hear about a workaround to this.
