I am using a link:hover to open a DIV using jQuery to load DIV with a table of options.

I need this DIV to stay displayed only while the cursor is within the boundries of the DIV.

I have tried to set onmouseout event to DIV that gets loaded but the DIV disappears(I suppose the onmouseout is fired) when I move the mouse from the calling link to the option table.

Check out .hover().

The following works great when I run it by itself. However, when I load it into a DIV tag using jQuery.load the hover will display the option correctly but when I move the cursor off of the hover item to move down the option list the options disappear.

I figured it out. I put the hover on the ul instead of the li tag.
