onmouseout being signaled w/o leaving the element

I have a DIV that contains some anchors arranged vertically. On the DIV element I have an onmouseout event handler. If I move the mouse over one of the anchors, and then move it to another anchor (while remaining inside the
DIV), the onmouseout event handler gets triggered even though the mouse never went outside the DIV. This happens in IE, Opera, and Mozilla.

You can see this problem for yourself here:

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Hey delerious,

A relevant code snip might help us to trace the problem...

I figured out why it is happening. The onmouseout event is bubbling up from the anchor to the DIV.
