[jQuery] Re: Problem with event.target and forms

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

$(document.body).click(function(event) {
  if(($(event.target).parent("div#tooltip").length > 0) || $
(event.target).is("div#tooltip")){
    event.stopPropagation();
   return false;
 }...........


<div id="tooltip" style="display: block; top: 294px; left: 503px;"
class="modal"><h3>Quick Post</h3><p class="body">
 <form method="post" action="profile.php">
  <div>
   <label for="title">Title:</label><input type="text"
name="blogTitle"/><br/>
   <label for="blogText">Blog:</label>
   <textarea name="blogText"/><br/>
  <input type="submit" value="Write" name="submit[entryAdd]"
style="width: 37px;" class="form_but"/>
 </div>
</form>

</p><p class="url"/><span class="close"/></div>


I have also found that if I use .parents instead it does work as it
should.
