html5's file api example with jquery?

I would like to use html5's file api, in combination with the external drag n drop functionality (drag an external file onto a designated spot and capture its contents) and jquery. I found a working non-jquery example: (html5 demo: file api)

 var drop = document.getElementById('drop');  
 drop.ondragover = function () {this.className = 'focus'; return false;};  
 drop.ondragend = function () { this.className = ''; return false; };  
 drop.ondrop=function(e) {  
          this.className = '';  
          e.preventDefault();  
          var file = e.dataTransfer.files[0];  
          var reader = new FileReader();  
          reader.onload = function (evt) {  
                console.log(evt.target.result);  
          }  
          reader.readAsText(file);  
      }; 

This works fine. Now I would like to make this more a jquery-ish and I tried:

 $("#drop").bind('ondragover',function() {this.addClass('focus'); return false;})
.bind("ondragend",function () { this.removeClass('focus'); return false;})  
.bind("ondrop",function(e) {  
         this.removeClass("focus");  
         e.preventDefault();  
         var file = e.dataTransfer.files[0];  
         var reader = new FileReader();  
         reader.onload = function (evt) {  
               console.log(evt.target.result);  
         }  
         reader.readAsText(file);  
     });   

But that doesn't work, none of the binded events seems to get triggered. I also tried to loose the "on" part for the eventnames but that also doesn't work. Hopefully somebody here can shine a light?
