Highlight On Mouseover Effect With JQuery

Highlight On Mouseover Effect With JQuery I have seen this effect been used a lot on e-commerce sites or sites with lists in general. I don’t know how they do it exactly but I can show you how I would do it with JQuery. Take a look at the CSS class I made, what it does is it has a gold background color and round corners for Firefox, Safari and Chrome. .highlight-yellow { background-color:#FFD700; -moz-border-radius: 5px; -webkit-border-radius: 5px; } Let’s make the divisions we will highlighting.

All I need now is to make a script that adds the CSS class we just made to the divisions when the mouse is on it, when the mouse moves out of the division I will remove the class. $(document).ready(function(){ $(".product").mouseover(function(){ $(this).addClass("highlight-yellow"); }); $(".product").mouseout(function(){ $(this).removeClass("highlight-yellow"); }); }); I don’t think I’ve told you about $(this) in any of my previous tutorials, in short, all $(this) does is refer to the current element on which the event (mouseout or mouseover) is been performed. As always, happy JQuerying!
