jQuery delay doesn't work as expected
- by Chris
I have the following jQuery code
$("#dropdown").hover(function() {
$(this).stop(true,true).fadeTo('fast',1);
$("#options").stop(true,true).slideDown();
}, function() {
$(this).delay(1000).stop(true,true).fadeTo('fast',0.1);
$("#options").delay(1000).stop(true,true).slideUp();
}
);
What I expect to happen is when the mouse leaves #dropdown it will wait 1 second before continuing. This is not happening.
What I am trying to achieve, in case there is a better way, is to leave the drop down menu visible for a second or two after moving your mouse and I would also like to prevent the events from happening again to prevent artifacts and "funnies" if you were to move the mouse over and out from the div very quickly
