jQuery: Which Element Triggered Function?

I've got some thumbnails that I animate a border onto when moused over. I use hover() to assign the functions when document.ready() is called. What I'd like is a way to disable this animation effect on the image that the user has clicked on. It has a different class. So, I was planning on doing this by making the animate function include a check to see if the thumb in question had this other class. If not, proceed; if so, do nothing. But to do that I'd need to know which 开发者_如何学Gothumbnail (they have unique IDs) triggered the function. Ideas?

Thanks!

$('.thumbs').hover(function(){
    if ($(this).hasClass('clicked')) return;
      //animate here
});

You can get the target element of the event, like this:

$(".foo").hover(function(e) {
    alert(e.target.id);
    alert(e.target.tagName);
    $(e.target).find(".blahblah").hide();
    // etc.
}, function(e) {
   ...
});

You could make a live handler that excludes the class by writing

$('selector:not(.someClass)').live({
    mouseenter: function() {

    }, 
    mouseleave: function() {

    }
});
