Onmouseout Event Not Always Triggered When Onmouseout On A Div?
Apr 5, 2009
I'm using code below to run a function when the user move the mousepointer from within a DIV and outside it:The idea is that that mousepointer motion shall hide the DIV.
Code:
document.getElementById(theID).onmouseout = hideDiv;
if (document.getElementById(theID).captureEvents) document.getElementById(theID).captureEvents(Event.MOUSEOUT);
It kind of works, but the problem is that if I move the mousepointer to fast out of the DIV then it will not trigger.The div in question has some elements within it, and originally it was allmost fully covered by those element... and then the onmouseout did not work that good....So I had to create some padding for the div to make it detect the onmouseout better... kind of work... but sometimes failes to trigger on the onmouseout.That padding also make the div not look that good ... so would like to get rid of all the padding as well, and make it work, if possible.I have tested this in the following browsers and get pretty much same behaviour in them all:IE8, Firefox (latest), Chrome (latest), Safari for win (latest beta)...

I've been implementing a drop menu in javascript, and I'm finding it difficult to understand why the event bubbling system is implemented as it is. In summary, I want an event to occur when the mouse enters/exits a large div or table that contains many descendent elements.
It appears to me, from experimenting with IE6 and Moz 5, that the event is generated *only* on the lowest element, thus given a table which contains tbody, tr and tds, with an onmouseover listener assigned to the table element (as a property), the onmouseover event is generated only for the td, although the mouse actually entered all these elements.
If there is a slight gap between elements you sometimes get events for the higher element. I guess this is a side-effect of the browser's implementation - sampling the mouse position.
My understanding of event bubbling from "JavaScript the definitive guide" is that events should bubble up the heirarchy unless they are stopped by the stopPropagation() method.

currently on our site we have and expanding <div> that responds to both the onmouseover and onmouseout events. It works wonderfully.
The UX people now would like the expanding <div> to open with the onclick event and then as soon as the mouse leaves the expanded div, it would close. I have tried using the onmouseout event in conjunction the onclick event but it does not work (the div persists).

I have a TD element, with a SPAN element inside. I use td-s onmouseover and onmouseout events for a small animation. My problem is, that, when I move the cursor over the SPAN element, the onmouseout event for TD element is fired. I want to prevent this. With other words, I want onmouseout fired, just when the cursor is moved outside the td area. See the code..

I have constructed a DHTML web editor, and it is working fine using many of the the components from my own scripting and some of the MSHMTL COMs. Now, everything is working fine,... except within the editing content component, i have a bunch of div's that call javascript functions to do various things including save,... insert tables... whatever!
and they all work... but if i onClick a div,hold the button move off of the div and onMouseUp,I get an error message comes up saying:
A Runtime Error has occurred.
Line 395
Error: 'className' is null or not an object
now... am i right when i say the error is coming from the appropriate onMouseUp function not being sent anything and it is trying to set it to className??
I mean i don't have a className! SO WHAT IS IT??? Basicly some one is either going to know what i am talking about, or have some low level .js include experience with the DHTML editing component.

Does anyone know why the onmouseout isn't working in the following?
I've just started the script (tho I'm sure I've spent over 40hrs on
this problem alone) and am trying to get just 2 buttons working before
I add the other 4. I'm absolutely mystified by the sticky onmouseout.
I've combined a couple of scripts that I've found in the newsgroup to
accomodate the mouseovers and "active" button action. Only 1 button
can be active at a time. Code:

I have a strange behaviour when applying onmouseout to a layer. it is
not trigged when the pointer goes out of the _layer_ but when it goes
off the _text within_ the layer.

I have a DIV that becomes visible when a link above it is moused over.
The DIV has links in it like so:
<div class="popup" onmouseout="hideLayer(this);">
<a class="popuplink" href="page1.html">Link 1</a><br/>
<a class="popuplink" href="page2.html">Link 2</a><br/>
<a class="popuplink" href="page3.html">Link 3</a><br/>
<a class="popuplink" href="page4.html">Link 4</a><br/>
</div>
When you mouse out of the div, it goes back into hidden. But as soon as I
touch any of the links, it hides, thinking I've left the DIV.
Now, I'm assuming this is a z-index layer issue, but I've tried every
combination of things I could think of to prevent the mouseout action when
mouseing over one of the links.
I tried setting div.popup's z-index higher than a.popuplink's, lower than
a.popuplinks, and the same as. (I did set each to a position as well.)
What am I missing?

I put an onMouseOver and an onMouseOut event on a div.
The onMouseOver works well but the onMouseOut looks worked like an
onMouseMove; the event is triggered when a move the mouse over the div.
is it normal? What should I do to avoid this problem?

Heyho. Well I'm rather new to JavaScripting, so don't be harsh on me :).
Well I'm trying to make a 'onMouseOver & onMouseOut' event, where you hold the cursor over a image, it will change to another.
So, here is my code:
It works fine when I use it for 1 picture, but it really mess up when I use it more then 1 time.

I have the following CSS menu, which uses a js to create the menu on Mouseover... I want to add a delay onMouseOut... I have tried the setTimeout function, but am having some trouble getting it to work... the submenu just stays out...
var menuids=new Array("verticalmenu") //Enter id(s) of UL menus, separated by commas
var submenuoffset= 0 //Offset of submenus from main menu. Default is -2 pixels.
function createcssmenu(){
for (var i=0; i<menuids.length; i++){
var ultags=document.getElementById(menuids[i]).getElementsByTagName("ul")
for (var t=0; t<ultags.length; t++){

I have an image that when hovered, another image pops up (this popup image has a 'learn more' button on it), but when someone attempts to mouse over the button, the image restores to its original image. I was advised to use 'setTimeout' but do not know how to apply it with the following code...
I understand WHY it's going back to its original state (the mouse is hovering outside of the area coordinates), but how can I apply the setTimeout script to DELAY the image from going back to its original state?

I'm adding an onmouseout event via javascript to a div:
Code:
document.getElementById('container').onmouseout = function () { closeContainer(); };
But it adds the event to all children of that div, which it shouldn't. How can I prevent this?

Trying to create a submenu with a tables and divs from a db, when the mouse is
rolled onto a item a submenu would expand using onmouseover and closed again using
onmouseout.
I got everything worked out but the only thing I cant get to work
is on the <div> that expands the main menu, the onmouseout is being activated
when the mouse is being moved over the sub menus which are the
<tr> and not the main menu <div>.
This is the basic jist of the code that I have a problem with.
<div is out')">
<table width="117" height="78" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="117" height="19" bgcolor="#006699"> Sub menu 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="20" bgcolor="#006699">Sub menu 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
I've looked on some over submenus that others have created and they use <div>
and <span>, but same problem I have gotten. Would anyone tell me a way of making this work?

I want to change what an OnMouseOut even does. It is contained in a div:
<div id="div1" onMouseOut = "alert('this');">sample text</div>
once the page loads, I call onLoad="setNav('div1')";
In the head of the document is the following javascript function:
function setNav(thisDiv) {
document.getElementById(thisDiv).onMouseOut = "alert('that');";
};
I can determine that I am properly targeting the div, but I cannot change the functionality of what the onMouseOut event does for the targeted div.

I want to make my drop down box similar to the one seen at [URL]
The menu links act as normal links but will drop down to a div box when a person hovers over the link. The box will appear when the person hovers it but SHOULD disappear once the person does not hover over the box anymore. So if the person hovers over another link, the box should disappear. I added a delay timeout to one of my div boxes and the box stays alive for a couple of seconds but then closes back up again even though I'm still hovering over it.
My js:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function drop(which)
{

I have a drop down menu system, however at the moment when you accidently leave the drop-down, it disappears straight away. I would like there to be a half a second delay before it goes away, any idea how I might add this to the onmouseout function?

I'm working on a couple of pages that look like this: [URL] As the visitor mouses over the month name, the image to the right is supposed to change to show the cover of that month's magazine issue. The onmouseover/onmouseout code has been working fine for months, but I recently added a couple new JS elements to the page, and now when the visit stops hovering over Sep/Oct, the image doesn't change.
I'm thinking that the way to fix this is by converting this action to jQuery, which is loaded on the page anyway, but I'm struggling to get a concise expression of what I want to happen. That is, I can do it by brute force with dozens of lines of code, but there must be a better way.

What I want is that everytime the user does a mouseover on Contact he can see the info on class para1. When he does a mouseover on Description he can see para2. Then on More he can see para 3. Yet if he wants to see the description he can do so. Once he is out of the popupbox description the popup box should disappear.I am trying, on a mouseout, display nothing. Yet if the user hovers over Description he will be able to see the para2 and if he hovers over More he will be able to see para 3. If he doesnt hover any of those then the popupbox doesnt display for any of the three.
