jQuery: How do I use event.preventDefault() with custom events?

trigger() can also take an event object, so if you can create an event object, like so:

var event = jQuery.Event("customEvent");
$(document).trigger(event);

then you can check after the trigger to see if preventDefault() has been called like so:

var prevented = event.isDefaultPrevented();

If you're asking how to find out whether or not the default has been prevented, use:

event.isDefaultPrevented()

This will return 'true' or 'false' based on whether or not preventDefault() was called.

EDIT: http://api.jquery.com/event.isDefaultPrevented/

Custom events do not have some default actions that happens .. (they are custom).

On the other hand, if you want to stop the bubbling effect of this event to others then have a look at triggerHandler which does not bubbles up to the hierarchy ..

To my knowledge the "preventDefault()" call is about preventing the native browser responses to things like clicks on anchor tags or keypresses in text fields. Once the event handling cycle is over, it's over. For made-up events, I don't think it has any effect at all since it's all about the jQuery event processing system and not about native browser functionality.

Your code could set some sort of flag somewhere in order to communicate with the "outside world."

[edit] ooh you could try having the handler stash a reference to the event object somewhere that the exteral code can find it, and then externally check with "isDefaultPrevented()". I don't know whether that'd work however.
