So the mechanism has been confirmed, but any solution would need to be more surgical than disabling Javascript. Unfortunately disabling Javascript also kills other important functionality on the page. I disabled Javascript on those pages and that is the mechanism.
Is there a way to suppress this action in Firefox or a Chromium-based commented that Javascript is likely used to show/hide the "pop-up" content. Can the pop-up mechanism that is employed be easily determined from the web page source code for the example links provided below?. (Earlier, it appeared that the Microsoft browsers behaved differently, but that turns out not to be the case.) Daniel B commented that he also replicated it with Edge. My main browser is Firefox (V62), but I've replicated it with Chromium and Vivaldi, in both Windows 7 and Linux, as well as Internet Explorer in Windows. Even worse, I sometimes find myself on a new page related to some garbage in the pop-up window. Accidentally passing over anything in this mine field suddenly obscures the page with a giant navigation menu (or other content), that continues to block the page until the mouse cursor is moved outside of that window. The problem is that there is no hover delay, so merely passing over one of these links is treated as a hover. There are other similar "hover booby traps" scattered throughout the page. That window covers a large portion of the screen, and remains displayed as long as the mouse is over any portion of the pop-up window. 
If you hover the mouse over most of these links, it pops up a window with a menu of links, an abbreviated version of the "click-on" page.
If you click on one of those links, it takes you to a dedicated page.īut there's a hover "feature". On both, there is a row of shopping "helper" links (circled in the pictures below), near the top of product pages. The and sites are at least two where I'm running into this. I don't recall this behavior previously, but I'm suddenly running into it with multiple browsers and multiple sites. The problem is links at certain sites related to web site navigation that activate when you hover on them. I've run into an annoying type of pop-up and can't figure out how to suppress it.
