Question

$("div#foobar").live('click', function() {  

});

$(window).hashchange(function() {   

});

How can I stop firing hashchange event when ever click event fires.

Note
On click event I am firing an ajax and changing the hash … And on hashchange I am doing something. Since Click event also changes the hash so hashevent fires. So, I want that whenever click event fires hashchange should not be fire ..

(function() {

    var fire_hashchange = true;

    $("div#foobar").live('click', function() {  
        fire_hashchange = false;
        // do stuff
    });

    $(window).hashchange(function() {   
        if (!fire_hashchange) {
            fire_hashchange = true;
            return;
        }
        // do stuff
    });
})();
