That sounds like a nice technical achievement, but even the Snap plugin never had the balls to adjust the scroll position of what I was reading.

i'm assuming it's a bug since it's changing the anchor of the page which is why it adjusts the scroll position. setting the anchor also adds a page to the history and makes the user have to click back a bunch of times just to get off the page.

the code is probably just not returning false from the onclick handler.

on another note, why are these called "hoverlets" when they require a click to do anything?

since the URI is the API , there are two events possible right now.

onhover onclick

http://onhover.hover.in/hoverlet/hover.in/crunchbase/yahoo will trigger the link is hovered http://onclick.hover.in/hoverlet/hover.in/bookmarks/ will trigger the link when clicked

the other fun hack is that that in case you have an image inside the onclick anchor element, the event will be triggered when it is clicked since it is a child. this works great when you want to create a badge / share this implementation.
