This is my first post here, so hello to all subscribers! I have googled a bit for my problem, but didn't find exact answer to my problem, or I do not understand event propagation enough. The situation looks like this: I have a nested list:
<ul class="someclass"> <li>1 Position... <a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">e-mail</a></ li> <li>2 Nested position <ul class="nested"> <li>1.1 Position... <a href="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">e- mail</a></li> ... </ul> </li> </ul> There's an event (click; toggle, to be more exact) bound to each ('ul.someclass > li'), making <ul> contained within this <li> (ul.nested) appear/disappear. The problem is: the event is triggered not only when I click on the "2 Nested position" label, but also when clicking on any of this element (i.e. ul.someclass > li) descendants, thus, preventing the "default action" for an anchor (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]). I have made a simple workaround: $('.someclass > ul > li a').click(function(e) { document.location.href = $(this).attr('href'); return false; }); which works, but I'm not quite happy with the solution. The question is: is there any way to easily prevent "propagation" described above? I can provide a link to a live code, if needed. greetings, Jakub
