Nature of Problem:
Physically lowest item in top navigation bar not properly selected 50%
of the time.

Can Duplicate:
Yes

The item located the lowest (closest to the rollover area) does not get
properly selected 50% of the time IF and only IF the navigation bar is NOT
anchored as 'always open'.

For instance I created a page where the absolute lowest item is called 'Web
Disabled'.

If you move the mouse on top of this item it highlights, or not. If it
highlights (not always the case), just move the mouse a little up/down or
left/right and you will lose the highlight while the mouse is indeed on top of
the item.

All other items in the navigation bar do select properly all the time.

If the navigation bar is anchored as 'always open' then no problem at all.
