not triggered by a link

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 10.2004

Is there any way to code this? (Everything I come up with seems way too complicated for the task and leads me in circles.)

If (this function was not triggered by clicking a link) {
do this
}

Thanks!

@demoMar 10.2004 — someone will probably say this is only IE applicable but what the hell, it gives you a start

<i>
</i>&lt;HTML&gt;
&lt;HEAD&gt;
&lt;META NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0"&gt;
&lt;TITLE&gt;&lt;/TITLE&gt;
&lt;/HEAD&gt;
&lt;BODY&gt;
&lt;SCRIPT&gt;

function doIt(){
if(event.srcElement.tagName!="A"){
alert("Hmm, this was not triggered by link!")
}
}

&lt;/SCRIPT&gt;
&lt;a href="#" onclick="doIt(); return false;"&gt;Click Here&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;P&gt;
&lt;input type=button onclick="doIt()" value="Click Me"&gt;

&lt;/BODY&gt;
&lt;/HTML&gt;


cheers
