Ok, so I'm going to make this short and sweet but my nomenclature might be a little off for some advanced JS users.
The problem I'm having is relatively simple but just can't seem to fix it. So, I downloaded the mouseenter function from Mootools and have found that the second example from the demos is how I want my navigation menu to function on my site. I like that it hides sub menus then shows them when the mouse enters the field. However, there is a MAIN function that I HAVE to have on my site and that is a hover function. Let me explain. My photography website is going to act as a portfolio site mostly, so when viewers go to the navigation menu and click on a section they'd like to see, there will be circular thumbs that appear on the left hand side of the page. Then from there once you hover your mouse over each respective thumb and there will be an image that appears in a specific viewing plane. This function worked until I downloaded the mouseenter demo. Once I tried to implement the mouseenter then the hover function stopped working. HOWEVER, the mouseenter DID work. So in a nutshell, whenever the hover function IS working for the thumbs, the mouseenter is NOT working for the navigation menu. AND when the hover function IS NOT working for the thumbs, the mouseenter IS working for the navigation menu. This is done by moving the respective <script> code in my head tags around. When I move the positioning of the script code the functionality changes. I can't seem to get them both working at the same time. Is there a way to fix this where they both are doing what they're suppose to? I feel there is something in the Java code that is not allowing this but whenever I try to read the code I feel like I'm trying to read Shakespeare..... from a Russian book. So here is what I'm going to do... below I've attached links so you can see what each respective thing is doing. I'm designing in Firefox so this is what I'm seeing. *Please note the conditional comments I left in the head tag for the script code as well as the code in the body tags for the nav menu. * Link where mouseenter function works http://www.thedigitalmachineshop.com/mouseenterdemo1.htm Link where hover function works http://www.thedigitalmachineshop.com/mouseenterdemo2.htm Thanks for any and all help.
