determine if ‘live’ or ‘bind’ is used on element

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Hi All

I have this odd situation in which a function receives an element that needs some cleanup; all events to which it is bind to should be removed
Unfortunately, I don’t know if the events are bind using ‘bind’ or ‘live’

Is it possible to use find this out somehow using only this element ?

cheers
Luca

@DanInMANov 01.2011 — if you need to unbind events, just use unbind(), it wont matter of its a bind or a live

@jeanlucaauthorNov 01.2011 — I've tested that, and it doesn't work. I really have to use 'die' to unbind a 'live' event. This is also described here

@aj_nscNov 01.2011 — So use

$(elem).unbind().die() and you can remove all event handlers

@jeanlucaauthorNov 04.2011 — bind, unbind and live are deprecated now!

They solved this issue by using only one function: on()

@aj_nsc your solution works perfectly, but I think I switch to version 1.7! and use on() instead!

Success!
