I think you're just generating to many layers, especially because of the
list widget.
I think if you write a nice lean list which only does what you need you'll
speed it up a lot.
Your list could be some relatively positioned Divs of fixed size, those in
the second list initially invisible.
When you click one on the left it would check the value of the
lastSelectedDiv, un-highlight that one, highlight itself, and make the
corresponding one on the right visible, and then store it's name as
lastSelectedDiv.
I'm not sure how the others feel about this, but I've got the best results
when wanting to do complicated things, by regarding a DynLayer as a
container,
which can hold simple HTML, tables, or Divs, these can also have their own
onmouseovers etc.
If I wanted a bar of 10 colors, I'd use one DynLayer, and set 9 div's with
different background colors as it's HTML, as opposed to nesting 9 dynLayers
inside the first one. I might be wrong, but I have a feeling this is a lot
more efficient.
Cheers,
