copied!<p>This is a very simple solution. Idea is, if you don't move your mouse over the div-container.. it will <a href="http://api.jquery.com/slideUp/" rel="nofollow"><code>slideUp()</code></a> the container itself in 2000ms (I put 2000ms, because its boring to wait <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=10%20seconds%20to%20milliseconds" rel="nofollow">10sec</a>).</p> <pre><code><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script> <style> div {width: 400px; border: 1px solid;} </style> </head> <body> <div> This is the paragraph to end all paragraphs. You should feel <em>lucky</em> to have seen such a paragraph in your life. Congratulations! </div> <script> $(document).ready(function () { var mouseover_to = setTimeout(function () { $("div").slideUp("slow"); }, 2000); // Change it to 10000 to be 10sec $('div').mouseover(function () { clearTimeout(mouseover_to); }); }); </script> </body> </html> </code></pre> <p><sup><strong>[ <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/hobobne/dZdCt/" rel="nofollow">View output</a> ]</strong></sup></p> <ol> <li>First it will wait till the document is ready</li> <li>It will start the countdown to 2000ms with <code>setTimeout()</code> and sets it as resource to <code>mouseover_to</code> variable.</li> <li>However, if <a href="http://api.jquery.com/mouseover/" rel="nofollow"><code>mouseover()</code></a> is detected over the <code>div</code> then the countdown will be canceled with <code>clearTimeout()</code>, thanks to the help of the resource <code>mouseover_to</code></li> </ol>
