Is there any difference between mouseover and mousehover?

Hi there,

There are some questions I really want to know.

Is there any difference between mouseover and mousehover in interaction design? Are they just the same?

And, my friend told me that mouseover = mouse enter + mouse leave, is that right?

Thank you for your time.

The .hover() method binds handlers for both mouseenter and mouseleave events. You can use it to simply apply behavior to an element during the time the mouse is within the element.

The “mousehover” I don’t know.

The mouseover has the mouseout; see: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/mouseout

The mouseenter has the mouseleave, see: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/mouseleave

Edit)
Thanks @liontas76, now I know the jQuery has the hover method.
