Klaus...
A few questions.
1) I'm assuming from your reply that there's no way to do this with
plain ole hover/toggle then?
2) What is a closure?
3) Is there any performance hit when doing .each (then toggle) versus
just doing .toggle?
4) Can you explain this line please?
var $this = $(this), size = $this.attr('href'), toggle = $('.' +
size);
