Cancel click event in the mouseup event handler

Question

Writing some drag&drop code, I\'d like to cancel the click events in my mouseup handler. I figured preventing default should do the trick, but the click event is still f

Answer 1

the solution that i use is the following:

var disable_click = false;

function click_function(event){
    if (!disable_click){
        // your code
    }
}

function mouse_down_function(event){
    disable_click = false; // will enable the click everytime you click
    // your code
}

function mouse_up_function(event){
    // your code
}

function mouse_drag_function(event){
    disable_click = true; // this will disable the click only when dragging after clicking
   // your code
}

attach each function to the appropriate event according to the name !
