stopPropagation() and cancelBubble

Another way of doing the cancelBubble:

function dropButtonClick(e) { if( typeof( e ) == "undefined" && typeof( window.event ) != "undefined" ) e = window.event; // do things.... if (typeof( window.event ) != "undefined" ) { // IE e.cancelBubble=true; } else { // Firefox e.stopPropagation(); } }

cancelBubble

I have this function but something was wrong with firefox. I got undefine value. After taking a closer look in my code I forgot to pass the 'event' parameter on my function.

function dps_cancel_bubble(e)
{
if (!e) var e = window.event;
e.cancelBubble = true;
if (e.stopPropagation) e.stopPropagation();
}

so you need to call it like this.
