Using M10 viewer:

onmouseover is called and background changes to red but background
never changes to black.

As an aside: I've noticed that the implicit width of a div tag
(without width specification) is often wider than the content it encloses.
I know not what the DOM spec says. IE5 seems to do the intuitive thing
and clamps the width to the contained content.

<head>
</head>
<body>

<div id="div0" style="color:white; position:absolute; top: 0;"
onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='red'"
onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='black'">
div0
</div>

<div id="div1" style="color:white; position:absolute; top: 30;"
onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='red'"
onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='black'">
div1
</div>

<div id="div2" style="color:white; position:absolute; top: 60;"
onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='red'"
onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='black'">
div2
</div>

</body>
</html>
Could the 'this' be being set wrong in the onmouseout context?  Considering
other mouseout bugs, that wouldn't surprise me too much.

The events do work.  Test case to be attached.

This fixed, although the attached testcase doesn't have the color changes in it
so you'll either have to go by the 'dump' messages in the testcase or copy/paste
the enclosed case with the color changes to verify this.
