Answer 1

If you're here, maybe this solution will work for you, even though it's not really related directly to the question.

If you've applied a

• $("button").click() listener, and
• your button contains a or any other , and
• your .click callback function refers to $(this) (or even this)

Then, if you click on the button, this will likely be the top-most tag you CLICKED ON.

This will often, such as in my case, misattribute the caller, causing script errors.

Hope it helps someone out there!
