I have a menu of operations (shown as icons) that I want to reveal when the user move their mouse over a region. Prototype's event handling + scriptaculous gives me great ways to do this. However, I want to menu (a floating div) to disappear when:
1. Some time has elapsed and the user never moved into the menu. 2. The user moves into the menu and then moves out of it. 3. The user selects an item in the menu. These all seem pretty easy to accomplish, but I keep running into weird edge conditions. Like if the user exposes the menu, moves the cursor into the menu, and then minimizes all the windows on the screen (Windows-D), then reveals the browser window... in my implementation the menu is still down even though it no longer has focus! It occurs to me that this is most likely a solved problem. Probably solved over and over and over. So... can anyone recommend a simple solution that will just handle all these edge conditions for me? Or recommend an idiom I can implement myself that will avoid the weird cases?
