I've already asked this question, but I think I din't explain the problem well enough. So here we go again:
I've got a list. With a default background color as shown in the picture above. I want to make item 4 background change to color #EDEDED when hovered upon. Only Item 4. Item 3, item two should remain with the original background color.
How do I do that? My problem has been that when I hover on item 4, all parent items get their background color changed to #EDEDED also. Any JQuery or CSS solution is appreciated.
Here's the code for the list above:
<ul>
<li class='comment'>
<div class='comment-body'>
item 2
</div><abbr class='timestamp' title='2011-02-18 11:39:32'>2011-02-18 11:39:32</abbr>
<div class='aut'>

</div><a href='#comment_form' class='reply' id='2' name="2">Reply</a>
<ul id='comments-ul'>
<li class='comment'>
<div class='comment-body'>
item 3
</div><abbr class='timestamp' title='2011-02-18 11:40:07'>2011-02-18 11:40:07</abbr>
<div class='aut'>

</div><a href='#comment_form' class='reply' id='3' name="3">Reply</a>

<li class='comment'>
<div class='comment-body'>
item 4
</div><abbr class='timestamp' title='2011-02-18 11:40:12'>2011-02-18
11:40:12</abbr>
<div class='aut'>

item 1

Here you go:
$('li:not(:has(li))').hover(
function() {
$(this).css({'background': '#EDEDED'});
},
function() {
$(this).css({'background': 'none'});
}
);

bind hover event for #comments-ul li, add a delay so that the other items do not display a background if the intent is item4 . you can try to use http://cherne.net/brian/resources/jquery.hoverIntent.html plugin
