I have a <div>
, and I want to toggle its classes on hover.
Here is my code:
function a(){
this.classList.toggle('first');
this.classList.toggle('sec');
}
document.querySelector('#container').addEventListener('click', a );
I know there is no problem in my html or css. It is just that I have to change and put something in place of click
, but I don't know what.
Please help!!
Hover event is called "mouseenter" instead of "click".
<script type="text/javascript">
function a(){
this.classList.toggle('first');
this.classList.toggle('sec');
}
document.querySelector('#container').addEventListener('mouseenter', a )
document.querySelector('#container').addEventListener('mouseleave', a )
</script>
While Tom Chung's approach definitely works, it's better to give mouseenter
and mouseleave
their own handler :
var container = document.querySelector('#container');
container.addEventListener('mouseenter', function(){
this.classList.remove('first');
this.classList.add('second');
})
container.addEventListener('mouseleave', function(){
this.classList.add('first');
this.classList.remove('second');
})
.first {
background: green;
}
.second {
background: orange;
}
<div id="container" class="first">
