name of element mouse is hovering
I'm using a global variable that toggles between true and false on mouse enter of a div and then I'm using the value of this variable elsewhere to show / hide another element depending on the value.
Actually, another way to do what I want would be to know if the mouse is hovering a div called MyDiv. I'm looking to remove the use of the global variable that toggles with the mouseenter/mouseleave events.
I tried this:
var test = $('#MyDiv').mouseover() ? 1 : 0;
but it's not working.
Let me know if you have a 1-liner suggestion for returning the name of the div that's being hovered.
Thanks.
PS: I already k开发者_运维问答now it can be done with more than 1 line
You should store your flag in jQuery's data storage:
$(this).data("mouseover", true);
if ($(this).data("mouseover"))
You can do this:
$('#MyDiv').mouseover(function(){
//show/hide other div or any other code
}) ;
OR
you can set another global variable that tells you whether mouse is hovering on MyDiv
like this:
$('#MyDiv').mouseover(function(){
myDivHovering = true;
}).mouseout(function() {
myDivHovering = false;
}) ;
jQuery uses a callback style to handle events. The functionality you're describing can be implemented like so:
var mouse_on_mydiv = false;
$('#MyDiv').hover(function onMouseIn() {
mouse_on_mydiv = true;
alert(this.id); // => 'MyDiv'
}, function onMouseOut() {
mouse_on_mydiv = false;
});
