I hope you guys can help....I have a page designed with a load of Rollover type
layers....What I am getting tired of doing is clicking on "Show / HIde" for the
behaviors of the layers when doing a mouse rollover. Is there a way to have all
the layers show as "Hide" and then I just click on "show" for the few items I
need to?

<br><br>
Also, what is benifit of the parent/child layers?..

Look for the AutoLayers extension.

> Also, what is benifit of the parent/child layers?..

None, if you mean inline, absolutely positioned div tags. Where are you
wanting to use them and why?

options at once but thereis no HIDE option...am I missing somthing?...

Yes - you are missing the basic premise of the extension. When you show a
layer using it, all other layers that have been shown using it are then
hidden.
