Question

I know how to bind multiple events and all that stuff. What I want to do is have multiple events occur to trigger a function.

Like

$(this).click and $(this).mousemove triggers a function

Is there a way to do this? Is it possible or am I just dreaming.

With a better understanding now, one thing you could do is have one event bind and unbind the other:

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/ZMeUv/

$(myselector).mousedown( function() {
    $(document).mousemove(function() {
        // do something
    });

    $(document).mouseup(function() {
        $(this).unbind();  // unbind events from document
    });
});

This prevents the mousemove from constantly firing when you have no need for it.
