Backbone.js - Both click and double click event getting fired on an element

Question

In my Backbone View, I have defined events like this:

events : {
  \'click .elm\' : \'select\',
  \'dblclick .elm\' : \'toggle\'

},

select: function(e){
           


        

Answer 1

This isn't an issue with Backbone itself. It's about how to handle both single click and double click events on the same button.

See

1. Need to cancel click/mouseup events when double-click event detected

2. Javascript with jQuery: Click and double click on same element, different effect, one disables the other

Update: But it would be better if you didn't have to deal with it. See mu is too short's answer below!
