I\'m using hammer.js and it appears that I event.stopPropagation() doesn\'t work with tap event.
event.stopPropagation()
If I click on the child, the associated event is triggered
You could try checking e.currentTarget (or is it e.target?) inside the parent handler to find out which element was tapped; if it's the child element then just return immediately, else continue with the function.
e.currentTarget
e.target
