I like the "on" version ( in my old personal tiny lib I use
$(whatever).on("evtname") and $(whatever).off("evtname") ... weird but
meaningful, isn't it ? )
Could be interesting, in my opinion, to have the possibility to avoid the
processes, something like:
$('div')
.on("click")
.If(function(){return this.parentNode.className != "dontDoIt"})
// could be If("this.parentNode.className != 'dontDoIt'") with an
evaluated expression
// but I personally prefere the callback version
.addClass("active").
.Else()
.pass() // anyway Else is not necessary of there's nothing to do
.done();
the ElseIf in the middle is part of the idea but the point is that in that
way it is not possible to avoid the event or remove it only for that element
parts of the chain.
Is my vision that bad?
Regards
