each of these rectangles is a span with an a in it, where the span has css styling to make it fit with the other panes in the menu, appear and disappear, and highlight by turning darker gray when the mouse hovers over it.
maybe instead of an a in a span, just use an a with css styling? would that accept clicks everywhere in the rectangle? worth a try...
better than the alternative of attaching javascript to the span to catch the click and click the anchor, because we'd like to have the full range of click and/or drag behavior that the browser provides on links, not just clicks with the main mouse button.
