Thanks for the suggestion but in this case it didn't help. I must be 
messing up elsewhere.

There probably is... I'm using a website from Viewsonic as my example. 
Here is the code working properly when people who know what they are 
doing write it:

http://viewsonic.com/monitoruniversity/lcdbasics.htm

Note: The link has a flash video with audio explaining how LCD panels 
work. It was the only page I could find where the help-bubbles worked 
properly under Mozilla.

The direct link to the JS script with used by this page is:

http://viewsonic.com/monitoruniversity/scripts/glossary_monitoruniversity.js

There are other scripts it calls too so maybe what I am missing is in 
one of them.

I looked again and I can't see anything else that might be relevant. 
Obviously there is though and I am missing it. Thanks Devin!!
