Question

I feel I want to do this often but can’t because I don’t have access to the actual events.

For example (and this is just an example as I can just look at the API instead) I was trying to see how stackoverflow’s image uploader works, but when I call $($0).data('events) (or $('form[action="/upload/image"] :submit').data('events') ) I get undefined. Is there any other way to look at the actual functions of certain events?

If so, is there also a way to set breakpoints on those events?

EDIT:

Using Visual Event this is what I see

I managed to find the image submit function here:
