klaus, hmmm.... well, basically I want to ultimately be able to do
this:
$('.trackerdiv').trackit();
right now, my trackmouse function looks at the srcEvent and figures
out which div the mouse was clicked on. that works fine.
if(srcEvent.className== ' trackerdiv')
i want to pass 'trackerdiv' as variable to the extension.
make sense?
