After a specified time the div visibility is set to hidden. There are some links in an image map at the top right of the page. Until the "popup" div is hidden you can no click on the image map links. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to www.jpox.org and try and click on the top left links while the popup on the top right is still visible 2. Once the popup is hidden try to click on the links again The same can be tried with the html below, reproducible everytime.

> www.jpox.org has a div that's positioned at the top right of the page. Actually, no. It's positioned across almost the entire top of the page (from 100px to the left of the left edge of the root element, to 100px to the left of the right edge). So it in fact sits over the links in question. Try putting a border on the <div> to see where it is.
