slim___shady Nervous Wreck (II) Inmate From: canada Insane since: Aug 2002	posted 10-18-2002 05:40 I have this dhtml menu here. I would like the flyouts to disappear about a second after mouseout, not immediately. Please help.

You gotta put that all in a function which is called multiple times. Then you can take the part that makes the menu invisible, and merely put it in a setTimeout() function call.
