minor glitch at RareWarez

Hi there

I got a slight glitch at rarewarez.hydrogenaudio.org.

when I leave to mouse cursor over one of the blue areas (alternating light/dark blue) where the files and news are displayed, I get a tooltip "colorShiftTarget" ofter ~0.5 seconds, which is pretty annoying.
Using Mozilla Firebird 0.7 / WinXP.

Thanks, damn great site nevertheless hehe

The reason this happens is because of the way the DOM stuff works for automatically altering the colors in the different table cells.

I need to be able to traverse the DOM and get a value name, and if it is the correct one, perform a color transformation on the element.  Unfortunately, I had to use the title tag to store this information because Internet Explorer (being the great browser that it is) wouldn't let me simply do this with the class name.  The title attribute was the only other attribute I could think of using (which worked with IE) that wasn't overly problematic (and was still standard).  Unfortunately, this has the side effect you've noticed.

As a solution, I could simply revert to using class names, but that would mean the color shifting wouldn't work on IE, which would probably leave the majority of the users out in the cold.

Annoying? Yes.  This is what happens when having crappy browsers with poor standards support in wide use and one tries to find a solution that works across everything
