Mouse collision with tile
I'm building a mouse based game where you must navigate through tunnels without touching the side. I chose gameQuery because I wanted an easy way to generate maps, and to handle collisions with those tiles.
I can't seem to work out how to detect a collision between the mouse and tiles using the engine. I've tried:
$.gQ.mouseTracker.collision('.gQ_tileType_0').each(function() {
but that just throws an error.
At the moment I've fallen back to doing this:
$('.gQ_tileType_0').live("mouseenter",function() {
but I'd love to know how to do it properly.

the
.collision()method is only used to detect collision between two sprites or tiles. So you're doing the right thing by using.live(). Furthermore it is faster since it's the browser that doing the job of detecting the collision instead of the library.
