In the following example:
{{item.title}}
showItem
can be updated to return early if the passed in item
no longer exists:
function remove(item) {
if (-1 == $scope.items.indexOf(item)) {
// Item no longer exists, return early
return;
}
// Rest of code here
}
This solution worked for me (I'm only supporting recent browsers, so I tried to modify the code to be more retro-compatible):
HTML:
<li ng-repeat="item in items" ng-click="showItem(item)">
<h3>{{item.title}}</h3>
<button ng-click="remove(item, $event)">Remove</button>
</li>
Scripts:
function remove(item, $event) {
// do some code here
// Prevent bubbling to showItem.
// On recent browsers, only $event.stopPropagation() is needed
if ($event.stopPropagation) $event.stopPropagation();
if ($event.preventDefault) $event.preventDefault();
$event.cancelBubble = true;
$event.returnValue = false;
}
function showItem(item) {
// code here
}
