Many objects with 1 event listener

1

OK so i’ve got a whole bunch of similar boxes on the screen layed out in a grid type fashion, each is Box object. Each has an event listener attached to it waiting for an the mouse to go over that Box, they all call the same function. Is there a way to uniquely identify each box without writing seperate listener functions for each Box?

I feel like if i could add the event listener with an extra parameter to call with the listening function i’d be ok, but i can’t figure out how to do this.

Any help would be much appreciated, let me know if im headed in the wrong direction.

Thanks!
