Hello,

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me with this issue.  
I’m trying to display hover captions, and I’m using the code I’ve used a million times before to do this, but for some reason in the current project I’m working on my x and y offsets are being ignored. Here is my script:

b14q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN4q06(true, “aetna”, this);  
this.onRollOut = function() {  
captionFN4q06(false);  
};  
};  
b24q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN24q06(true, “cigna”, this);  
this.onRollOut = function() {  
captionFN24q06(false);  
};  
};  
b34q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN34q06(true, “coventry”, this);  
this.onRollOut = function() {  
captionFN34q06(false);  
};  
};  
b44q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN44q06(true, “healthnet”, this);  
this.onRollOut = function() {  
captionFN44q06(false);  
};  
};  
b54q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN54q06(true, “humana”, this);  
this.onRollOut = function() {  
captionFN54q06(false);  
};  
};  
b64q06.onRollOver = function() {  
captionFN64q06(true, “united”, this);

};  
};   
b74q06.onRollOver = function() {

The hover captions, should be offset from my mouse, but they are showing up quite a bit to the right and above my mouse. The only difference between this movie and others where i’ve used this hover caption code is it’s under a mask. Even when I change the xo, yo values they’re still ignored ☹  
Any help or suggestions is much appreciated!
