Definition and Usage
The onmouseenter event occurs when the mouse pointer is moved onto an element.
Tip: This event is often used together with the
onmouseleave event, which occurs when the
mouse pointer is moved out of an element.
Tip: The onmouseenter event is similar to the
onmouseover
event. The only difference is that the onmouseenter event does not bubble
(does not propagate up the document hierarchy). See "More Examples" at the
bottom of this page to better understand the differences.
Browser Support
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully
supports the event.
