Thanks for the response Paul. The onmouseover and onmouseout events are embedded in neither the li nor the anchor tag, but rather in the parent unordered list tag. The idea is that mousing over any part of the unordered list reveals (with a slight delay) the entire list which can have one or more list items. Each of the list items is parent to an anchor tag. The anchor item is in fact smaller (narrower) than its parent li. In my browser (Safari) there doesn't seem to be any behavior difference between mousing on the anchor area vs. the list item area, both result in "vibration" I guess as the script for lowering and raising the object run repeatedly in opposition. As for halting event propagation, I'm not familiar with what you mean, but will google around for further info.
