title: Can I call this anonymous function in jQuery by triggering something?
body: <p>I'm using the <a href="http://cherne.net/brian/resources/jquery.hoverIntent.html" rel="nofollow">hoverIntent jQuery plugin</a> in place of jQuery's <code>hover()</code> method. I want the <em>mouseout</em> event to be called automatically.</p>
  
  <p>When using <code>hover()</code>, I can trigger the mouseout event by calling <code>mouseout()</code>. This doesn't work when using hoverIntent.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried calling a named anonymous function, but it didn't work for me (and I hear older IEs don't like named anonymous functions).</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://jsfiddle.net/alexdickson/KXccW/" rel="nofollow">Here is an example on jsFiddle.</a></p>
  
  <p>If I auto invoke the <em>mouseout</em> function, it can't be called via hoverIntent.</p>
  
  <p>Now I know I could do...</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('something').hoverIntent(function() { }, something);
  
  something();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But I was wondering if what I wanted was possible?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
