Question

when I bind the mousemove-event on the body

$("body").mousemove(function(e)...

on document-ready it also triggers when the page is loaded, the mouse is inside the browser window but mouse isn’t moved. Why is that? How could I prevent this?

Edit: seems that this is a Safari-Bug. In Firefox I can’t reproduce this behaviour.

Answer 1

this should not be happining anyhow just try bind() or live().

$("body").stop(true)
$("body").bind('mousemove', function(e){
 alert('mouse moved');
});
