IE disappearing div bug - Help required.

Hi,

Whilst developing a cross-browser fading-slideshow I discovered that
hovering the mouse pointer over an image link in IE7 causes the images to
disappear.

Here's a minimal test url that simulates the intended usage...

http://www.microbuild.com/microbuild/test/div_test.html

.... I can see that every time the slideshow starts a new loop the images
re-appear so I'm guessing that the "zoom=1" within the Opacity() function is
refreshing the image (doesn't happen during the setTimeout period used to
create a pause between images).

I could substitute the pause with a loop that constantly sets the opacity of
the slideshow but this seems like overkill for such a little issue.

I don't think the issue has anything to do with "peek-a-boo" bugs or
commonly know CSS bugs as my usage of divs is quite rudimentary (i.e.. no
floats, no overflows or anything fancy )


Thanks in advance for any help
