I have a simple unordered list of links that I want to animate. But I
can't remember how, using jQuery, I should ensure that the UL stays
showing when I move the cursor over it. The problem is that I have
position: relative on the container, and absolute on the UL (I need
this for z-index purposes). So, when the UL appears, the container
height does not change, given the UL is "out of the page flow".
<div id="the_ul_container">
<h6>hover me</h6>
<ul id="the_ul">
<li>...</li>
</ul>
</div>
$('#the_ul_container')
.show()
.hover(function()
{
$('#the_ul').show('slow');
},function()
{
$('#the_ul').hide('fast');
});
When the cursor moves onto the UL, it begins toggling without letup.
Is my best option to use setTimeout in the second function?
