Question

Here is my spaggeti code

$("#table_exams tbody tr").click(function ()
{
    window.location.hash="#" +$(this).attr("exam_ID");
     window.location.href="/medilab/prototypes/exams/edit?examId=" + $(this).attr("exam_ID") +"&referer=" + referer;

   row_select(this);
});

$("#table_exams tbody tr td a").click(function ()
{

    window.location.hash="#" +$(this).parent().parent().attr("exam_ID");        
    var where="/medilab/prototypes/exams/edit?examId=" + $(this).parent().parent().attr("exam_ID") +"&referer=" + referer;
    window.open(where);
    row_select($(this).parent().parent());
    alert("propaganda");
    event.stopPropagation();
    event.preventDefault();
    return false;

});

The problem is that when this function is triggered

$("#table_exams tbody tr td a").click(function ()
{

the other function is triggered also…. only in IE…
What can i do for this????

This line:

$("#table_exams tbody tr td a").click(function () {

Needs to be this:

$("#table_exams tbody tr td a").click(function (event) {

You’re not passing the proper event into the function, I’d imagine you’re getting an undefined on event.stopPropagation(); in IE.
