Depends on your browser...

However, this will work in IE, Netscape 4, Opera 5+ and Gecko-based
browsers (Netscape 6+, Mozilla etc):

function mouseover_event(oEvent){
alert(oEvent.type);
}

<a href="#" onMouseOver="mouseover_event(event);">HERE</a>


For more info on event handling, please see:

hey

does anyone know the code to return the event?

eg.

<script>
function mouseover_event()
{
alert(/*the name of the event. in this case "MouseOver"*/);
}
</script>
<a href="#" onMouseOver=2mouseover_event();">HERE</a>
