Question

I’m looking to detect the first occurrence of a mouse movement so I can target human visitors with jquery affects. Any leads on how I might accomplish this. I’d also like to do this without targeting class names or object ids… so a blanked target on the tag should do. Any advice?

Answer 1

$('body').one('mousemove', function() { .... } );

This will look for mouse movement anywhere, but will only do it once.

Note: This isn’t exactly a reliable method, smartphones don’t have mice. And a non-human program can still move the mouse.

But it does answer your question.
