I am having a problem with my animations in IE, i am developing a web 2.0 application and it works PERFECTLY on Firefox, opera, safari but not IE

This is a video detailing the issue, if anyone can shed some light on this subject i would be grateful.

i can probably provide some code, depending what it is, link:no.
The effects are both css and javascript, it is a simple :hover effect for the width change (margins) and a small function to change the class of one of the sections.

One thing I will mention is that the :hover pseudo-class works only on anchor ("A") elements in IE 6. If you have it on any other element, it will not work.

Pardon my PHP

This is the associated CSS style
Code:
#hover{width:98%; margin-left:1%; margin-right:1%;}
#hover:hover{width:100%;margin-left:0%; margin-right:0%;}
.post-title-hl{height:40px;font-weight:bold;font-size:16px;padding-left:10px;}

This is the highlight function, simple class replacement.
Code:
function toggleHighlight(on,id){
	var post=document.getElementById('post-title-'+id);
	if (on){
		post.className="post-title-hl";
	}else{
		post.className="post-title";
	}
}


This is the html layout.
Code:
<div id="post#<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>" class="post" onmouseover="toggleHighlight(true,<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>);" onmouseout="toggleHighlight(false,<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>);" >
  <table class="group-<?php echo $row['ID_Group']?>" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" id="hover">
  <tr>
    <td width="6"><img src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>corners/Corners_01.png" align="left"/></td>
    <td></td>
    <td width="6"><img src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>corners/Corners_03.png" align="right"/></td>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td width="6"></td>
    <td>
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"  <?php  if ($is_user_own_post) echo " onmouseover='toggleEdit(" . $row['ID_Post'] . ");' onmouseout='toggleEdit(" . $row['ID_Post'] . ");' "?>  onclick="toggleSlide('<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>')">
  <tr>
    <td width="50%" id="post-title-<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>" class="post-title"><a target="_blank" href="<?php echo $g_root?>posts.php?ID_Post=<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>"><?php echo  truncate_description($row['Title'],$f_max_title_length)?></a>
    <?php if ($is_user_own_post) {?>
        <span id="edit2.<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>" style="display:none;" class="edit-button"><a target="_blank"  href="<?php echo $g_root?>editpost.php?ID_Post=<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>">Edit</a></span>
        <?php  }?>
        </td>
    <td width="8%" align="center"><img id="slideIMG#<?php echo $row['ID_Post']?>" src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>slide/slideDown.png" alt="Expand and Collapse"/></td>
    <td width="20%" align="center"><a style="font-size:12px;" target="_blank" href="<?php echo $g_root?>users.php?id_user=<?php echo  $row['ID_User']?>"><?php echo $row['Username']?></a></td>

    <td width="20%" align="center"><span style="font-size:12px;"><?php echo format_date($row['Date_Created'])?></span> </td>
    <td width="2%"><a target="_blank" href="<?php echo $g_root?>feeds/rss.php?Group=<?php echo $row['ID_Group']?>"><img src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>icons/feed-icon-14x14.png" align="right" style="border:none;" alt="<?php echo $row['Group_Title']?> RSS Feed" /> </a></td>
  </tr>
</table>

    </td>
    <td width="6"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>

    <td width="6"><img src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>corners/Corners_06.png" width="6" height="6" align="left" /></td>
    <td></td>
    <td width="6"><img src="<?php echo $g_image_path?>corners/Corners_07.png" width="6" height="6" align="right" /></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</div>
 
IE6 aside, i am running this on IE7 which DOES support it on more thank just links, but i dont think that is the issue here.

I will try replacing the :hover with a class change or something but i really dont see that helping the situation.
 
Okay, i just got rid of any :hover and replaced it with javascript className changes and it runs a TINY bit better, but it still has the problem if i move the cursor at any speed in IE it will skip.
