jQuery bind/unbind 'scroll' event on $(window)

Question

I have this function:

function block_scroll(key){
    if (key) {
        $(window).bind(\"scroll\", function(){
            $(\'html, body\').animate({scrol         


        

Answer 1

$(window).unbind('scroll');

Even though the documentation says it will remove all event handlers if called with no arguments, it is worth giving a try explicitly unbinding it.

Update

It worked if you used single quotes? That doesn't sound right - as far as I know, JavaScript treats single and double quotes the same (unlike some other languages like PHP and C).
