Transits

Some questions:
To what extent are there other transits in the solar system?
I think I heard something about Mercury getting between the Sun and the
Earth a few years ago. If that happens it won't be as spectacular as a
Venus transit, because Mercury is smaller and it's a lot closer to the Sun
(so farther from us).
For instance,
how often do these happen...
A transit of Earth as seen from Mars?
A transit of Jupiter as seen from Saturn?
Also, when is the next total eclipse of the Sun which occurs during a
transit of Venus?
