Question

I am using the following script and there is placeholder div. when i mouseover the div play button should come over the placeholder.

I have three placeholder in a row. When I mouseover the one particular placeholder, all the play button appears. What I need is when i mouseover the placeholder only that play image should appear.

Hope you can understand my question. Could anyone please help me to do this?

jQuery.noConflict();
       jQuery(function(){
        jQuery('.placeholder').mouseover(function(){
               jQuery('.play').show('show');
        });
        jQuery('.placeholder').mouseleave(function(){
               jQuery('.play').hide('hide');
        });
      });

HTML:

 <div class="placeholder item"><div class="play"><img src="images/play_ico.jpg"></div></div>
 <div class="placeholder item"><div class="play"><img src="images/play_ico.jpg"></div></div>
 <div class="placeholder item"><div class="play"><img src="images/play_ico.jpg"></div></div>

CSS:

.placeholder{
    width:120px;
    float:left;
    background:#ccc;
    height:67px;
    position:relative;
}

.play{
    width:120px;
    height:67px;
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    left:0;
    display:none;
    background:#000;
    opacity:0.4;
filter:alpha(opacity=40);
}

Try the following:

    jQuery('.placeholder').mouseenter(function(){
           jQuery(this).find('.play').show();
    });
    jQuery('.placeholder').mouseleave(function(){
           jQuery(this).find('.play').hide();
    });

as an alternative you can use hover method:

    jQuery('.placeholder').hover(function() {
           jQuery(this).find('.play').show();
    }, function() {
           jQuery(this).find('.play').hide();
    })
