Open a div via trigger and leave it open as long as mouse in the opened div

A simple jQuery question There is 开发者_如何学Gotrigger, which opens a div, now I want the div to remain open as long as the mouse is in the div.

Eg. (trigger)->open(box)->as long as mouse in the box, leave box open.

How does one do this?

the problem is the hover you have is working on your trigger div. if you leave the trigger div your mouseOut function is called.

change your DOM a bit, and put the box INSIDE the trigger makes it work.

html:

<div id="trigger">
  <span>This is a trigger</span>
  <div id="box"></div>
</div>

script:

$('#trigger').hover(function() {
    $('#box').show();
}, function() {
    $('#box').hide();
});

css:

#box {width:350px;height:400px;border:1px solid #000;display:none;}
#trigger {width:350px;}

i changed the width of the #trigger element (by default the div element takes 100%) and i changed the markup (adding box inside the trigger.

or like that:

$('#trigger').mousenter(function() {
    $('#box').show();
});

$('#box').mouseleave(function() {
    $(this).hide();
});
