[jQuery] jQuery for Floating Div

[jQuery] jQuery for Floating Div


Hi all,
I'm trying to construct a "popover" menu that resembles the one on
Amazon.com (put your mouse over "see all 43 product categories"). I'm
not too familiar with jQuery/JavaScript, but I thought I would be able
to do something like this:
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $("#link").mouseover(function(){
            $("#popup_menu").show();
            return false;
        });
        $("#popup_menu").mouseout(function(){
            $(this).hide();
            return false;
        });
    });
The problem is, as soon as you move your mouse off the link to go into
the div, it collapses. Could someone please offer some examples/
insight?
