That doesn't seem to work. The initial mouse over causes the event to

You want some kind of timeout/interval event to scoll on while the mouse
hasn't move out of the element. I'm not familiar with the library you're
using. You also don't need [code] tags to post code. This is usenet. We
tend to use plain text.

Thanks. My bad about the tags.

So here is the working code. I will change the intervals, but that
isn't important. Thanks Joost.

window.addEvent ('domready', function(){
// Create a global namespace API
var JD = function(){
/* PRIVATE */
// Create a scrolling object for the team box
var team_scroll = new Fx.Scroll(
'team_side_bar' ,
{
duration: 1000
}
);
var position = 0;
/* END PRIVATE */

/* PUBLIC */
return{
init: function(){
// Register events for team bar scrolling
var topTriggerTimer = function(){};
var bottomTriggerTi mer = function(){};
// TODO (exiquio) adjust pixels
$('top_trigger' ).addEvent('mou seenter', function(event) {
topTriggerTimer = (function(){
team_scroll.scr ollTo(0, position - 116);
position = position - 116;
}).periodical(1 500);
});
$('top_trigger' ).addEvent('mou seleave', function(event) {
$clear(topTrigg erTimer);
});
$('bottom_trigg er').addEvent(' mouseenter', function(event) {
bottomTriggerTi mer = (function(){
team_scroll.scr ollTo(0, position + 116);
position = position + 116;
}).periodical(1 500);
});
$('bottom_trigg er').addEvent(' mouseleave', function(event) {
$clear(bottomTr iggerTimer);
});
}
}
/* END PUBLIC */
}();
// Call init()
JD.init();
});

You can't "keep checking the mouse position". Just use mousemove events.

So a client requires a useless column on the page that contains
employee profile blocks with little images in them. The div tag
containing the content has an overflow of hidden. It contains more
profile blocks that can be seen. The task is to have the thing scroll
through the profiles when a user hovers the edge. I have it scrolling
one block at a time 'onclick'. My question is this: Is there a simple,
efficient way to capture a continuous mouse hover? I guess I could
keep checking the mouse position, but that seems too inefficient to be
the best way.

Thanks.
