In the tree when using OnMouseIn to squeeze html out of auto-tooltips, item styles are sometimes left in the wrong state

In the tree when using OnMouseIn to squeeze html out of auto-tooltips, item styles are sometimes left in the wrong state.

I tried to do the following (edited because it was in vb render trigger)

oTree.attachEvent("onMouseIn", function(sNodeID){ BaseTreeMouseIn(oTree, sNodeID); } );

where

function BaseTreeMouseIn(oTree, sNodeID)
{
var sTooltipOrg = oTree.getItemTooltip(sNodeID);
if( AppRoot.IsEmpty(sTooltip) )
{
sTooltipOrg = oTree.getItemText(sNodeID);
}
var sTooltip = sTooltipOrg.replace(/<\/?[^>]+(>|$)/g, '');
if( sTooltip != sTooltipOrg )
{
oTree.setItemText(sNodeID,oTree.getItemText(sNodeID),sTooltip);
}
}

If I hover over items in a large tree quickly moving from itme to item sometimes the display gets out of whack (multiple items have the onmoseover type style).

I tried various tricks involving setTimeout, which vastly improved things, but the problem still occurs occasionally, both in IE7 and IE8.

Any ideas on how to fix the problem, short of losing the nice effect of have a distinct style when the mouse is over an item, or having to explicitly set the tooltips (which would nearly double the size of the client xml)?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Tom

I put everything inside a try catch (I was very hopeful as that would have been easy) -- but the problem remains.
