Disjointed, clickable text rollover
I have text-based navigation. Rolling over "contact" displays the address (layer) over all the other menu buttons. I would like the email address and the phone number to be rollovers (changing color from grey to red) and as well clickable links. Problem: roll-out makes the address disappear, which is intended but it's impossible to click address/phone links. Would it work if the roll-out effect (disappearing) would be delayed? Is there a CSS only solution?

Figured it out
I added padding to the right of the popup so there's no gap between contact and popup. Works fine now.
Thanks for checking everybody!
Here's what I have so far: raphaelzwyer.com/testRapha/portfolio.html
The only drawback: I can't figure out how to make the phone link work independently from the email link. Any ideas?
