When You Can't Capture, Hover(draft)

Even though the browser landscape in my line of work has gotten better (as in, projects don't use IE6 or IE7 anymore), I still need to deal with "legacy" browsers. Since IE8 has been around for ?? years and is becoming the [new IE6], the term legacy fits.

I came across an issue where it was taking some time for javascript objects to initialize after a page load on IE8 for an application I was building. I just read about delaying object initialization using event capturing to increase performance[link]. Makes sense, no need to initialize objects until they are about to be used. Of course the rub is that IE8 doesn't do event capturing. I could shake my fist at IE for being behind the times and the bane of web developer existence..but I chose to find another way to implement the concept.

The UI item in question was a an piece of a bigger UI element, and getting to it (to click it) required mousing over the containing UI element. I could use the mouseover event t
