Onmousover events for drop down navbar buttons? (Community, Search, Quicklinks)

[TJFweb]

Hi,

I'm developing a custom style and I'm trying to make a graphical navbar for my forums.

I've put my navbar in the header template, and so far it looks like this:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="background-color: #FFFFFF">
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
	<td align="$stylevar[right]" id="header_right_cell">
		<if condition="$ad_location['ad_header_logo']">$ad_location[ad_header_logo]<else /></if>
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td align="$stylevar[left]" style="background-image: url('images/iwca/navbar_bg.gif'); height: 39px">

<!-- nav buttons bar -->
<div style="padding:$stylevar[cellspacing]px; border-top-width:0px">
	<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="left">
	<tr align="center">
		<if condition="$show['member']">
			<td class="vbmenu_control" style="background:url(images/iwca/navbar/usercp.gif); width: 60px" onmouseover="this.style.background='url(images/iwca/navbar/usercp_blu.gif)'" onmouseout="this.style.background='url(images/iwca/navbar/usercp.gif)'"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="images/clear.gif" width="60px" height="39px"></a></td>
		</if>
		<if condition="$show['registerbutton']">

			<if condition="$show['quick_links_groups']">

			</if>
		</if>
		$template_hook[navbar_buttons_right]
		<if condition="$show['member']">
			<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="login.php?$session[sessionurl]do=logout&amp;logouthash=$bbuserinfo[logouthash]" onclick="return log_out('$vbphrase[sure_you_want_to_log_out]')">$vbphrase[log_out]</a></td>
		</if>
		</tr>
	</table>
</div>
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->

	</td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /logo -->

<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

$ad_location[ad_header_end]

Note: In the above code, I've only customised up to and including the 'Community' link.

As you can see, I'm trying to use onmouseover / onmouseout events to change the TD background. It works perfectly for all buttons except Community, Search and Quick Links, which all use drop down menus.

I think this may be due to the popup Javascript for these navbar entries interfering with my onmouseover / onmouseout code.

Can someone please tell me how I can get this to work? I've seen this done in a lot of custom styles (i.e. http://www.vbstyles.com/demo/index.php?styleid=28 )

Thanks!
