javascript - Continuous mouseover

Question

I am looking for a way to repeat a mouseover action until the user moves away from the target. A mouseover invokes a function once, I am looking for a way to keep doing the function.

Cheers, Gazler.

You'll need to use setInterval():

var to;
var doStuff = function() {
    console.log('doing stuff...');
};

$('a').hover(function(e) {
    to = window.setInterval(doStuff, 1);
},function(e) {
    window.clearInterval(to);
})
