Hi.

I'm new to jQuery, in fact any kind of AJAX / JavsScript (although not new to PHP, xHTML and CSS). Anyway I'm trying to achieve a "tooltip-like" effect, where I can hover over a div...the new div fades in above it and then when I exit the div the "tooltip" fades out.

So here's the basic jQuery I've managed to scrap together reading the odd guide here and there:

$(function()
{
    $('#sn-not-logged-in').hover(function()
    {
        $('#sn-not-logged-in-hover').fadeIn('medium');
    });

    $('#sn-not-logged-in-hover').mouseout(function()
    {
        $('#sn-not-logged-in-hover').fadeOut('medium');
    });

});

Problem is if I put "any" html tag inside the div that hovers in, the second you roll over it the div fades back out.

Any ideas how this can be fixed?

Cheers.
