Mouseenter function does not apply to all elements

Hello folks,

I'm having trouble using the mouseenter function in certain scenarios. Basically my code looks like this:

1.  $("*").mouseenter(function() {
2.       ...
3.     $(this).css('background-color', 'green');
4.       ...
5. }

This works for most cases - but for instance for google calendar it does not. The elements inside the purple rectangle (check screenshot) don't fire the mouseenter function (the elements around work fine...).



If I just execute:

1. $("*").css('background-color', 'green');
   

All elements (even those inside the purple rectangle) are reached.

I can just assume that it is related to the scripts that google is using - but it still should be possible to reach the elements inside the rectangle - right?

Thank you for reading - help is very appreciated.

Cheers
