Q:

how to store .attr("id") in a variable

You guys have been very helpful before.  I've been searching stackoverflow for a while now, but can't come up with an answer. 
Hopefully, this is a simple question.  I'm trying to store the id of the currently hovered div in a variable.  Then, I want to use that variable to toggle an image with the same id.
You can see that I've tried setting the variable directly to one of the id's and that works perfectly.  I've tried lots of different techniques.  What am I doing wrong? 
Thanks in advance for any advice! 
I have a jsFiddle here:

JQUERY
$(document).ready(function () {
    $('.hover').mouseenter(function() {
    var currentId = $(this).attr("id");
//  var currentId = "#story1";
    $('.pshow').hide();
    $('.feature').find(currentId).toggle();
    });
});

HTML
<div class="row-fluid" id="homepage-spotlight">

<div class="feature" align="center">
    <img class="pshow" id="preview" src="http://i.imgur.com/yuiHc20.png" alt=""/>
    <img class="pshow" id="story1" style="display:none" src="#" />
    <img class="pshow" id="story2" style="display:none" src="#" />
    <img class="pshow" id="story3" style="display:none" src="#" />
    <img class="pshow" id="story4" style="display:none" src="#" />
</div>

<div class="jdlthumbnail">
    <div class="jdlh2"><span>Large Image Features Will Give More Pop.</span>
    <div style="font-size:17px">by Ebenezer Ekuban</div>
</div>

<div class="hover"  id="story1">
    <a href="#"><h2 class="jdlh2b">Story #1 Text<br>Teaser</h2></a>
</div>

<div class="hover"  id="story2">
    <a href="#"><h2 class="jdlh2b">Story #2 Text<br>Teaser</h2></a>
</div>

<div class="hover"  id="story3">
    <a href="h#"><h2 class="jdlh2b">Story #3 Text<br>Teaser</h2></a>
</div>

<div class="hover"  id="story4">
    <a href="#"><h2 class="jdlh2b">Story #4 Text<br>Teaser</h2></a>
</div>

</div>
</div>

A:

When you get the id with the attr, it gets the name of the id, but not the # symbol associated with it.  Append the # to the current id like this:
$('.feature').find('#' + currentId).toggle();

Also, I'd recommend changing the pshow ids to classes that can relate to the id. take a look at this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/CRwNr/1/

Maybe you need to do:
$('.feature').find("#"+currentId).toggle();
