Combining Raphael and jQuery to achieve browser compatibility

Question

Having discovered that IE does not handle javascript onmouseout, I\'m determined to use jQuery instead so the cross-browser compatibility would be taken care of

Answer 1

If you end up just copying the code that's used by the Australia demo, you'll run into IE trouble no matter which handler (hover, mouseover, etc) you use.

After banging my head on it for a while, it seems that the st.toFront() in the hover in/out functions cancel the "mouse out" event in IE. Delete those lines from the example code and you should be fine.
