I have taken a look at a few other threads and noticed that someone posted a bubbledFromChild function. This function isn't working for me and I'm not sure how to get around this issue. I'm attempting to overlay a div over another div which contains a few elements. The problem is that the mouseout even is firing when I move from the container div to any of it's child elements.
I have tried the following to fix this problem. 1.) Use a bubbledFromChild event. 2.) Writing mouseover events for all child elements of the div that triggers the overlay. Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <div style="float:left;"> <div style="border:solid 1px black; width:300px; float:left; clear:both;"> <a class="blarg" href="#" style="display:block; width:100%;"> <img src="someimage.jpg" /> <br /> <span>blah blah blah</span> </a> <div style="float:left;"> left </div> <div style="float:right"> right </div> </div> <div style="border:solid 1px black; width:300px; float:left; clear:both;"> <div class="blarg" href="#"> <img src="someimage.jpg" /> <br /> <span>blah blah blah</span> </div> <div style="float:left;"> left </div> <div style="float:right"> right </div> </div> <div style="border:solid 1px black; width:300px;"> <div class="blarg"> <img src="someimage.jpg" /> <br /> <span>blah blah blah</span> </div> <div style="float:left;"> left </div> <div style="float:right"> right </div> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var elements = $$('.blarg'); for(var i = 0; i<elements.length; i++){ elements[i].observe('mouseover', function(event){ if(!bubbledEvent(event.element(),this) && $ (this.identify() + '-overlay') == null){ this.setStyle({border: 'solid 1px black'}); var rolloverElem = new Element('div', {id:this.identify() + '-overlay'}); rolloverElem.setStyle({ height:'18px' , position: 'relative', top:'0px', left:'0px', opacity: '0.5', border:'solid 1px green', display:'block', backgroundColor:'Blue' }); this.insert({bottom: rolloverElem}); } }.bindAsEventListener(elements[i])); elements[i].observe('mouseout', function(event){ this.setStyle({border: 'none 0px white'}); $(this.identify() + '-overlay').remove(); alert('called 1'); }.bind(elements[i])); elements[i].descendants().each(function(e){ e.observe('mouseout', function(event){alert('called');}); }); } function bubbledEvent(element, parent){ var elems = parent.descendants(); boolReturn = false; for(var j=0; j<elems.length; j++) { if(element == elems[j]) boolReturn = true; } return boolReturn; } </script> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
