delay() or timeout with stop()?

Question

$(\'.file a\').live(\'mouseenter\', function() {
    $(\'#download\').stop(true, true).fadeIn(\'fast\');
}).live(\'mouseleave\', function() {
    $(\'#download\').st         


        

Answer 1

you can use this on jquery without using delay event .

$('.file a').hover(function() {
  time = setTimeout(function() {
     $('#download').fadeIn();
  },1000);
},function(){
    clearTimeout(time);
});

1000 is your time that after it $('#download') will fade in .
