HI,
i ma using the settimeout function to display block and append to 'li', once the mouseover. and i just want to remove the block and make it none.
in my funcation works fine. but problem is even just my mouse cross the li, it self the block getting visibile. how to avoid this?
my code is:
var thisLi;
var storedTimeoutID;
$("ul.redwood-user li,ul.user-list li").live("mouseover", function(){
    thisLi = $(this);
    var needShow = thisLi.children('a.copier-link');
    if($(needShow).is(':hidden')){
        storedTimeoutID = setTimeout(function(){
            $(thisLi).children('a.copier-link').appendTo(thisLi).show();
        },3000);
    }
    else {
        storedTimeoutID = setTimeout(function(){
            $(thisLi).siblings().children('a.copier-link').appendTo(thisLi).show();
        },3000);
    }   
});
$("ul.redwood-user li,ul.user-list li").live("mouseleave", function(){      
    clearTimeout(storedTimeoutID);
    //$('ul.redwood-user li').children('a.copier-link').hide();
    $('ul.user-list li').children('a.copier-link').hide();
});
