Question

I would like to show and hide a div during hover and hover out.

here’s what I’ve done lately.

css

$("#menu").hover(function() {
  $('.flyout').removeClass('hidden');
}, function() {
  $('.flyout').addClass('hidden');
});

.flyout {
  position: absolute;
  width: 1000px;
  height: 450px;
  background: red;
  overflow: hidden;
  z-index: 10000;
}

.hidden {
  visibility: hidden;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="menu" class="margint10 round-border">
  <a href="#"><img src="images/menu.jpg" alt="" id="menu_link" /></a>
</div>
<div class="flyout hidden">&nbsp;</div>

My problem is that when I hover on the menu id, the flyout div is blinking.
why is that?

May be there no need for JS. You can achieve this with css also. Write like this:

.flyout {
    position: absolute;
    width: 1000px;
    height: 450px;
    background: red;
    overflow: hidden;
    z-index: 10000;
    display: none;
}
#menu:hover + .flyout {
    display: block;
}
