Colors of the left menu on this site will not always restored to it's original
value (grey). You have to view slow & fast over the menu (try it). After you
have moved a mouse over a colored menu (which wasn't restored to grey) it
becomes grey. If you have checked all menus - it works brilliant - it only
happens at the first time!!!! You have to RELOAD the page to reproduce the
mysterious coloring.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the URL
2. View with the mouse over the left menu - try it slow & fast.



Actual Results:  
Colors will not always restored back after the FIRST view over a menu!


Expected Results:  
The colors should be restored to the grey value.

The javascript function 'ChangeBgColor' will be called on 'onmouseover' but the
'onmouseout' will NOT ALWAYS called on the FIRST TIME.

Other browsers are working brilliant.

Please note - if you want to retest it you have to RELOAD the page because it
happens only for the first time for each menu!

Sorry, I've changed the Apache http.conf and restarted the webserver. Now you 
can come in from another REFERER ...




The link should work now.

Try to set backgroundColor instead of background:

  document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor=bgcolor;


I still don't understand why onmouseout is not executed the first time if
onmouseover set the background

Thx,
this solution works and is 'cleaner' of course.

I'm not so into JavaScript - I've taken it from 'www.deutsche-bank-24.de' :-)

Anyone should change the status of this bug. I don't know if anyone want to fix it - it's really not important (for me now).

Regards,
Robert G.
