can any one tell me why this code doesn't work in NS4??

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META NAME=&quot;GENERATOR&quot; Content=&quot;Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0&quot;>
<SCRIPT ID=clientEventHandlersJS LANGUAGE=javascript>
<!--

function menu1_onmouseout()
{
document.layers[&quot;menu1&quot;].visibility=&quot;hidden&quot;;

}

//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

<DIV id=menu1 STYLE=&quot;position:absolute; width:30px; height:30px&quot; LANGUAGE=javascript onmouseout=&quot;return menu1_onmouseout()&quot;>hide me</DIV>

</BODY>
</HTML>


It seems that if I try to apply any action to a div tag in NS4 nothing happens - I need to get this working for a client menu, but I can't find an adequate solution anywhere!!

Thanks in advance.

After a small amount of testing, I have decided to believe that NS 4 does not accept the
Code: 
onmouseout
event on DIV's. Testing a LAYER, however, worked.

Aahh, layers - I tried replacing the &quot;<div>&quot; tag with &quot;<layer>&quot; but nothing happened - where did I go wrong?? could you post your working layer version for me???

This has been driving my mad all day - I've spend 5 hours on it as it is!!!
