dropdown menu flashing on and off when srolling thru

Hi there, I have created drop down menu using layers as per instructions
posted by Ravi on 7/27/05

The instructions work beautifully, however there is one thing I need further
help with... As I scroll down thru the submenu it disappears for the split
second that it takes to get to the next line of text/interactive button. The
effect is that the menu flashes on and off as I scroll thru.

Cheers,
Mark

As you suggested, getting rid of onmouseout stops the flashing. However, I
can't work out any other way of getting the submenu to dissapear. I tried
putting another layer around the submenu (as described in link you provided)
so that submenu would become invisible when scrolled over, but couldnt get it
to work.
Cheers,
Mark
