Get mouse wheel events in jQuery?

Question

Is there a way to get the mouse wheel events (not talking about scroll events) in jQuery?

Answer 1

use this code

 knob.bind('mousewheel', function(e){  
 if(e.originalEvent.wheelDelta < 0) {
    moveKnob('down');
  } else {
    moveKnob('up');
 }
  return false;
});
