jquery: mouseleave event seems to fire when it's not supposed to
- by Jeremy
Given the following html table and script shown below I am having a problem where the mouse leave event appears to fire right after the mouse enter, even if I don't move the mouse out of the row.
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function highlightRows(iMainID)
{
$('tr[mainid=' + iMainID+ ']').each(function() {
if ($(this).attr('old') == undefined) {
$(this).attr('old', $(this).css('backgroundColor'));
}
$(this).animate({ backgroundColor: "#FFFFCC" }, 500);
$(this).mouseout(function() {
if ($(this).attr('old') != undefined) {
$(this).animate({ backgroundColor: $(this).attr('old') }, 500);
}
});
});
}
</script>
<table>
<tr>
<td mainid="1" onmouseover='highlightRows(1)'><div>text</div></td>
<td mainid="1" onmouseover='highlightRows(1)'><div>text</div></td>
<td mainid="2" onmouseover='highlightRows(2)'><div>text</div></td>
</tr>
<table>
