ortonville is up and rdy. right now i have
CODE
display:none
in for the div.transON class
One problem with your current approach is that you want the image removed from flow when you move the mouse over it. As soon as the image is removed, the mouse is no longer positioned over it, so the image reappears. This would create an infinite loop where the image is both disappearing and reappearing until the mouse moves away from the image.
One approach that would work is to have the event listener listen for an event on the container element of the image (you already have this in your initial code) and apply the
class attribute to the
img element instead of the container.
Your code will probably need more revision than that though since I suspect that it will fail when CSS, JavaScript/ECMAScript, or images are disabled. See
http://www.jsgp.us/demos/DIC30807.html for an example of a script that degrades gracefully when the CSS, JavaScript/ECMAScript, or images are missing from the picture.

is absolute placement different in firefox?
Yes. Several aspects of absolute positioning are handled incorrectly by Internet Explorer. It’s a bit better in Internet Explorer 7, but, I believe, there are still bugs.
