onMouseOver in N6 won't work until page is clicked

roblasch · Mar 8, 2001

I have an image that has a mouseover event that opens an instrutional layer. In Netscape 6, it won't function until the page has been clicked. But when you click the page it opens a pop up window (that is what the instruction is). Is there something I am missing? I tried this.focus() in the body onload. You can see the page at

Every page except the first has the pop up on it. It works just fine after the first click.

this is NOT elegant, but did you try to <body ... onload="document.click()"> ? i don't know if it'll work, it might ... and it won't solve the problem - but it will hide it ;]

That doesn't work, and also generates a message in IE. I don't understand why this is happening. It is a simple mouseover event. Over an image no less.
