I thought it was pretty nifty when I first saw that a while back… until I saw the code that it produces…
Turns this…
Code:
<a href="http://example.com" class="scrollover" type="scrollover">Link text</a>
…into this…
Code:
<a style="text-decoration: none;" href="http://example.com" class="bannerScrollover" type="scrollover"><fieldset style="border: medium none ; margin: 0pt; padding: 0pt; line-height: 1em; text-align: left; display: inline;"><span style="overflow: visible; display: block; cursor: pointer; height: 1em; position: relative; width: 76px; margin-top: -0.2em;"><span style="overflow: hidden; display: block; position: absolute; height: 1.3em; width: 76px; margin-bottom: -0.3em;"><span style="display: block; margin-top: -0.1em; position: absolute; width: 76px;" class="scrollover_Nudge"><em id="scrollover_0" style="display: block; line-height: 1.4em; position: absolute; top: -28px; font-style: normal;">link text link text</em></span></span></span></fieldset></a>

Nice idea, but really badly produced.
Pass.
