check window open

I’m using JQuery to change the URL of a window.open event depending on certain selections:

$(".class").click(function() {
    window.open("http://www.url.com/" + variable);
});

The problem is that every time it changes, I have to call this click function again and the old window.open event is still remembered and two windows are opened, then 3, then 4, etc.

I have tried a lot of work-arounds and nothing is working. I tried calling the click function just once and then changing the variable but the window.open will only remember the original variable.

Is there a way to remove old click event handlers before adding a new one?

Answer 1

Before adding the new click handler, you can remove the old one(s):

$(".class").unbind('click');
