I want to stop propagate event from parent div
to child div
in my html. Here a simple code what I\'m trying to do:
Check target for match clicked object. Try this code in beginning of click event handler.
if( event.target !== this ) {
return;
}
//...do stuff..
Instead of using e.stopPropagation, I suggest you to use unbind() method in the div <div class='listed-category'>
like so...
$('.listed-category').unbind('click');
This will allow to stop the propagation effect for the .listed-category
div. The method e.stopPropagation()
doesn't work because it just works with parent elements and not with child elements.
You can always create a new function and assign to the .listed-category
div afterwards.. You can also check the documentation for the unbind()
method at this link: http://api.jquery.com/unbind/
I hope that helps!

$(document).ready(function(){
$(".arrow").click(function(){
$(".row").slideToggle();
});
$(".btn").click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
//$(".btn").attr("href","www.yahoo.com")
});
})
.btn {

you need to stop propagating in child,not parent so you should write this:
$('.listed-category').click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
});
and if you want to click a
tag and stop propagation too,you also need to write this:
$('a#close').click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
});
Anyways I will suggest Yuriy's answer. I just want you to know that you should put event.stopPropagation()
in childrens(if you don't want event of parent is run),instead of parent.
The accepted answer is correct but in a best scenario when you have multiple nested elements, You would like to not cancel the event but to get the actual clicked parent container and work with it.
$('.clicked-container').click((e) => {
let t = e.target;
while (!$(t).hasClass( "clicked-container" )) { t = t.parentNode; }
...
$(t).toggleClass('active-or-whatever-you-want');
});
Also "this" in the accepted answer doesn't refer anymore to the same thing when you using Arrows => in ES6
