Javascript events

    Hi folks...

    I need to show a div when a visitor attempts to leave my page.

    I've tried using "onMouseout" on a div.
    I've also tried onbeforeunload, and onbeforeunload

    These events are not behaving as I expected.
    The div shows when a user leaves the page - but also when the page loads.
    That's no good.

    Also - in the case of "onMouseout" it fires when I try to take the mouse over to the scroll bar and scroll down. Also not good.

    I Need something that only shows when the user is leaving - not arriving, or scrolling.

    What event should I be using?

    Keep in mind I don't want to STOP them... just show a div to warn them about leaving in a current state.

    I want to avoid the window.open as showing a div isn't a "pop up" and thus not likely to be blocked.

    Thanks!
    Doug
