Onmouseover

This is related to my previous question, however I feel it had nothing todo with "onblur in firefox" so I thought it best to start a new topic.

Ok, basicly I want an event to fire everytime the user moves the mouse at all.
I currently have:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.     window.addEventListener?
  2.      document.addEventListener('mousemove',handler,false)
  3.       :document.attachEvent('onmousemove',handler);
  4.  
Which is all very well, except one problem. I have an iframe in my document. As soon as you scroll over the iframe. it stops processing the onmousemove.
Is there anyway around this? or do I need to find another way?

thanks, Josh

The iframe is one of the child window of the window where you bind that Listner so it will not work in that case.

The browser treat an ifrme as a separate window.So please think about this.Then you will sure find the solution to this case.

Make a transparent div over the iframe, if you don't need to click inside the iframe.
Or try to reach the body tag of the iframe through the DOM.

Hi. I have a DIV section that has many thumbnail images inside it. I have a DIV so all images can fit in a row and the horizontal scroll bar is used to move the thumbnails from left to right. Does anyone know any code to have the DIV scroll from left to right when I use an onmouseover on two images either side of the DIV? Thanks Laurie

I know I can have like <a href="#" onclick="dothis" onmouseover="dothat"> But how do you properly code two mouseover's in one statement? <a href="#" onmousever="dothis" onmouseover="dothat"> As an example of use: Column A holds menu items. When a mouse over is performed, two actions take place instead of one. Action one sends an image to a division in column B, action two sends text to another division in column B.

Hi Gurus I am trying to make this rather complicated maps with an a huge number of mouseovers and the like. I want to set up a function that OnMouseDown swaps the OnMouseOver and OnMouseOut for the same element. E.g. <A HREF="#" OnMouseOver="A(); return true" OnMouseOut"B(); return true;"

I have been writing a practice sliding div navigation script. I am finding myself in the position where I need to force a div into showing the hover behavior defined in css. So my question is this. If I have two divs, is there a way to make the second div display its onmouseover behavior when the mouse is over div 1?
