Neither could I and apparently we were discussing the same thing as no
correction to my explanation was forthcoming.
Mouseleave events are not practical for cross browser development
because they aren't implemented in many browsers. Changing that still
leaves a problem:
How do I detect "onmouseleave" support?
One possibility would be to have a there is a mouseleave property on
the element. That way, its presence could be detected:-
"onmouseleave" in el;
- ideally true
Gecko doesn't do that. For example:-
'onclick' in document.createElement("div");
false in Gecko.
