Description Samrod 2005-07-22 05:37:16 PDT 
This issue exists across all browsers I've seen to date.

onmouseout, onmouseover, and even the CSS property :hover are triggered only
when the mouse is moved over or off an object.  But if an object slides under or
away from a static mouse on its own, either by page scrolling or animating the
object's location, the events aren't triggered.

This may seem insignificant, but in a more elaborate scenario such as the
sliding icons at the top of my albums:

as expected while in motion.
