jQuery: Hide popup if click detected elsewhere

Question

I\'m trying to hide a div if the user clicks anywhere BUT the popup OR its children. This is the code I have so far:

$(\"body\").click(function(){
    var $t         


        

Answer 1

As of jQuery 1.7 there is the on() handler, the following works for me, assuming a visible popup contains the class '.activePopup' :

$('body').on('click', ":not(.activePopup)", function(e){
  e.stopPropagation();
  //do your hiding stuff
});
