Link Menu – Timeout function

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Nov 05.2004

I am trying to make a simple menu using Javascript. Basically, I have links going across the top of the page and when the mouse is placed on either link it causes a <div style=”visibility: hidden”> area to become visible and then it loads that area with links.

Now, my problem is: How do I make it so that when I move the mouse out of the <div> area, it goes back to hidden after a specified amount of time – I am guessing using the clear and set Timeout functions. I am just not sure of how to do it.

Let me know if you need code to help me out with this one, Thank you in advance.

onmouseout="setTimeout('hideIt()',1000);"
