Try starting a timer on mouse down, and only register the click event
if the timer is less than x milliseconds. The fringe case for this
would be users who click for seconds, or who drag in milliseconds.
I'm .positive. this is not the best possible way to handle this, but
it could be a last resort.

Hi,
I am using the "drag" plugin (http://blog.threedubmedia.com/2008/08/
eventspecialdrag.html) to design some interactions for a UI element.
The element foo, needs to respond to a click, as well as to a drag
(different responses for each). The plugin gives you handy drag
events
to work with.
So I have:
$("#foo").bind('dragend', function(e){ dragged() });
$("#foo").bind('click', function(e){ clicked() });
When foo is simply clicked on, then clicked() is executed and all is
well.
However, when foo is dragged, dragged() is called and right after
that
clicked() is called as well.
I don't want clicked() to be called when foo is dragged, but I can't
seem to figure out how to avoid that. Help is much appreciated.
