#thisdiv doesn't fadeOut. I could have used the following, but it only fades out if the cursor mouse outs of #thisdiv. Is there any way i can solve this so when the cursor navigates away from anyway, the div still fade out.
$('#thisdiv').mouseleave(function() {
$('#thisdiv').fadeOut(400)
});
I couldn't figure out what's why jquery's :not selector is not doing what I wanted to. Am i using it wrongly?
