Don't rely on script to do that: people can turn it off. Instead, use the :hover pseudo-class.

code:
td {
background: #CCCCCC;
}

td:hover {
background: #999999;
}

':hover' only works on 'a' elements containing a 'href' in IE, just so you know.

~~Does it? Damn~~
Not according to w3schools.com: :hover is supported across the board
