Hello

Using accordion, I want to open it (only one section) when I hover over the header and close it when I leave the header with my mouse.

Ive been able to get it to work 50% but when I hover my mouse over the header if it is open, it closes. If it is closed, it opens.

I only want it to open when I hover and automatically close when I stop hovering.

Here is code I have:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>jQuery UI Accordion - Open on hoverintent</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css" />
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#accordion" ).accordion({
    collapsible: true,
event: "click hoverintent"
});
});
/*

$.event.special.hoverintent = {
setup: function() {
$( this ).bind( "mouseover", jQuery.event.special.hoverintent.handler );
},
teardown: function() {
$( this ).unbind( "mouseover", jQuery.event.special.hoverintent.handler );
},
handler: function( event ) {
var currentX, currentY, timeout,
args = arguments,
target = $( event.target ),
previousX = event.pageX,
previousY = event.pageY;
function track( event ) {
currentX = event.pageX;
currentY = event.pageY;
};
function clear() {
target
.unbind( "mousemove", track )
.unbind( "mouseout", clear );
clearTimeout( timeout );
}
function handler() {
var prop,
orig = event;
if ( ( Math.abs( previousX - currentX ) +
Math.abs( previousY - currentY ) ) < 7 ) {
clear();
event = $.Event( "hoverintent" );
for ( prop in orig ) {
if ( !( prop in event ) ) {
event[ prop ] = orig[ prop ];
}
}
// Prevent accessing the original event since the new event
// is fired asynchronously and the old event is no longer
// usable (#6028)
delete event.originalEvent;
target.trigger( event );
} else {
previousX = currentX;
previousY = currentY;
timeout = setTimeout( handler, 100 );
}
}
timeout = setTimeout( handler, 100 );
target.bind({
mousemove: track,
mouseout: clear
});
}
};
</script>

Any ideas on how to do this?

OK, I think its a bit better now.

Sorry about that....
