I think keeping the source in a variable is the key here, try this: $('li.clickable').hover(function() { var newsrc = $(this).find('img').attr('src').replace ("_off","_over"); $(this).find('img').attr({src: newsrc}); }, function() { var oldsrc = $(this).find('img').attr('src').replace ("_over","_off"); $(this).find('img').attr({src: oldsrc}); });
