Mouse movement / mouseover and JavaScript evaluation in watir

Question
I have a JavaScript-heavy Rails app which I am testing in watir. I have two specific testing requirements:
- I need to be able to simulate moving the mouse to a specific area of the screen (or at least triggering the onmouseover event for a div)
- Evaluating a snippet of JavaScript once the above has happened to see if a flag is set correctly
I haven't been able to figure out how to do this in watir. Any ideas on how to do this?
Solution
For the first question:
browser.div(:id, "some-id").fire_event "onmouseover"
I have no idea how to solve the second question. You could ask at watir-general.
