Better slideUp footer

JavaScript
1

I have a footer which I want to slide up on .hover. I have it working but it keeps triggering when the cursor is on the footer (the footer keeps going up and down) That’s obviously because of the event I used. This is what I have:


	jQuery( function ( $ ) {
		var footer = $( ".footer" );
		$( ".trigger" ).hover(
			function( event ){
				event.preventDefault();
				if(footer.is( ":visible" )){
					footer.slideUp( 800 );
				}else{
					footer.slideDown( 800 );
				}
			}
		);
	});

This script was actually a click event, where this is working fine. But I need an event where the footer moves again when the cursor is not longer on the footer. At least that’s what I guess :rolleyes:

Edit: I got it working using .mouseenter and .mouseleave instead


	jQuery( function ( $ ) {
		$("#footer").mouseenter(function(){
			$("div.footer").slideDown(800);
			});	
		$("#footer").mouseleave(function(){
			$("div.footer").slideUp(800);
			});	
	});
