Weird. I know I'm using the same browser and platform as John, and I
can't get it to happen either. I also tried setting hover: true, just
for yucks, and I can't get it to happen in that case either.

So, this is just another WORKSFORME. Ill watch over John's shoulder
today an see if I can see what's happening that I (and presumably Eric)
are doing wrong.
