Hello all,

I want to call a javascript when hovering over any chameleon element. The actual purpose ios to pop up a detailed help of the different features for new users after selecting a help button.

I managed to make it work under Firefox, by surrounding the each element with either:

<!-- ZOOMIN -->
      <td><div onmouseover="doTooltip(event, zoomInMsgTips)" onmouseout="hideTip()"><cwc2 type="ZoomIn" visible="true" imagetip="Zoom In" image="icons/icon_zoomin.png" toolset="Navigation" styleresource="NavButtons">
              <image state="normal"/>
              <image state="hover"/>
              <image state="selected"/>
          </cwc2></div></td>
or:
<!-- ZOOMOUT -->
      <td onmouseover="doTooltip(event, zoomOutMsgTips)" onmouseout="hideTip()"><cwc2 type="ZoomOut" visible="true" imagetip="Zoom Out" image="icons/icon_zoomout.png" toolset="Navigation" styleresource="NavButtons">
              <image state="normal"/>
              <image state="hover"/>
              <image state="selected"/>
          </cwc2></td>

Unfortunately this does not work properly in IE: The help layer pops up are it should only if the mouse pointer is on for example a navigation button BUT NOT on the buttons image. In other words, only when I carefully position the pointer on the border.

Any idea how to solve this?

Cheers,

Carlo
