Jquery mouseenter() vs mouseover()

Question

So after reading a recently answered question i am unclear if i really understand the difference between the mouseenter() and mouseover(). The post

Answer 1

See the example code and demo at the bottom of the jquery documentation page:

http://api.jquery.com/mouseenter/

... mouseover fires when the pointer moves into the child element as well, while mouseenter fires only when the pointer moves into the bound element.
