Question

I need to take whole document in mousemove event except one class in document using jQuery

My class is no-mousemove-node.

$(document).mousemove(
        function(e){  
        ....
});.

I tried like below, but no working

$(document).not('.no-mousemove-node').mousemove(
        function(e){  
        ....
});.

Is it possible to do this?

Answer 1

Use e.target inside your event handler to see if the source element matches your criteria, and abort execution if it does not:

$(document).mousemove(
    function(e){  
        if ($(e.target).is(".no-mousemove-node")) return;
        // now do what you need
    }
});

Update: if you need to also filter out descendants of .no-mousemove-node use .closest to determine if you are, or have a parent that is, a .no-mousemove-node:

function(e){  
    if ($(e.target).closest(".no-mousemove-node").length) return;
}
