Rails spinoffs - Feb 2008 - Stoping ajax requests

I have a tag cloud, with on-hover event, When mouse gets over tag,
related info is displayed in extra "about" div node.
Everything is ok, while connection is fast, but with slow connection i
get lag:

e.g. i''d like to preview tag from the middle of the cloud, this means
i have to pass-over some other tags. If i move mouse to preferred tag
in less than second, view in "about" div changes "1st hovered
tag" =>
lag => "2nd hovered tag" => lag => .... => "Xth
hovered tag" =>
preferred tag. So i have to wait sometimes up to 10 or more sec.

How to stop these reqests to be fully executed.

Only thing what i figured out is to preload all "abouts", but may be
there is other, smarter solution?


p.s. im using == script.aculo.us web 2.0 javascript

for each hover in to an array when the page loads. that was you
