Question

How can I get the class name of the current element that is on mouseover? For example <

Answer 1

this should work:

define a class in your style sheet:

.detectable-div{
    border: white solid 1px;
}

.detectable-div:hover{
    border: red solid 1px;
}

then in your js:

$('div.detectable-div:hover').mouseover(function () {
    $(this) // this is your object
})
