I’d like to register view events on the view parent element. I tried the parent selector:
var MyView = Backbone.View.extend({
events: {
'mousemove :parent': 'mousemove'
},
// ...
});
But it is not working. How can I achieve this?

Backbone uses jQuery event delegate, so you can’t delegate events to the parent node.
see in Backbone source code line 954, the View.delegateEvents function.
