I have a "click" event assigned to a link. When the event fires, I'd like to unbind this event and re-assign a new "click" event to the link. The re-assignment is handled within the originating "click" event.
This works FINE in FF 1.5/+. It crashes IE by sending it in a continuous loop (IE seems to immediately execute the "click" event re-assignment, thus causing a recursive loop). NOTE: I have tried using $.oneclick() to no avail. Below is a short code synopsis. A demo page is posted @ http://dev.iceburg.net/jquery/tableEditor/rebind.html which demonstrates the issue using jQ plugin-format code. --- <script> $().ready(function() { $("#link").click(function() { rebind(this,'a'); return false; }); }); function rebind(link,action) { jQuery(link).html('link '+action).unbind().click(function() { alert(action); rebind(link, (action == 'a') ? 'b' : 'a'); // return false to halt browser link execution return false; }); } </script> <a href="#" id="link">Click Me!</a> --- Is the a jQ bug? Is there a better workaround/means? I realize I could probably have 2 links & hide the inactive one. Thanks, ~ Brice _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
