'hidden' layer... dead links

    We're testing a Hover Ad -- a hidden layer that is only visible via a cookie every thirty days.

    Everything works great-- with one exception.

    We discovered that when the layer is hidden, any links 'under' the layer are dead. This might be something odd with IE. When we tested with Netscape, everything was okay.

    We tried refreshing the page and re-launching the browser.

    The layer code looks like this:
    <div id="hover" style="position: absolute; top: 235px; left: 101px; border: 0px; visibility: hidden; width: 386px; height: 321px">
    Code (markup):
    And there is a table inside the layer.

    Ideas anyone? Thanks.

    Overlib uses z-index to manage these issues but I've found z-index to be buggy if you have <input> tags behind. haven't tested it for plain old <a> tags.
