jquery: unbind or remove a function

Hi,
how can I unbind or remove a function with jquery?

for instance, this is my html,

Code:

<li><img src="..." alt="1"></li>
<li><img src="..." alt="2"></li>
<li><img src="..." alt="3"></li>
<li class="padlock"><img src="..." alt="4"></li>

i will display the value of alt with the tooltip code below,

Code:

$(document).ready(function(){
tooltip();
});


this.tooltip = function(){

xOffset = 10;
yOffset = 20;

$("li").hover(function(event){
var title = $(this).find("img").attr("alt");
$("body").append("<p id='tooltip'>"+ title +"</p>");
$("#tooltip")
.css("top",(event.pageY - xOffset) + "px")
.css("left",(event.pageX + yOffset) + "px")
.fadeIn("fast");
},
function(){
$("#tooltip").remove();
});
$("li").mousemove(function(event){
$("#tooltip")
.css("top",(event.pageY - xOffset) + "px")
.css("left",(event.pageX + yOffset) + "px");
});
};

i want to remove this tooltip function when the class 'padlock' is clicked,

Code:

$('.padlock').click(function(){
$(this).append("<li class=\"locked\"></li>");
$('.padlock').unbind('mouseenter mouseleave');
$('.padlock').unbind('click');
$(".unlocked").remove();
$(this).addClass('currentlock');
removeMouseover();
lockoff();
});

many thanks,

 

just check at the top of the hover and out functions if $(this).hasClass("padlock") and return false.

i.e.

if ($(this).hasClass("padlock"))
    return false;

PHP:

it's far more practical this way - should you decide to remove the class, you dont need to bind the hover again, it will just work.

i just looked at the code in more details, you actually need to check for hasClass("locked") on a child of $(this) instead... i am sure you can do something here was well like:

if ($(this).getChildren("li .locked").length) return false; // should be an array with 1 element if locked li is there.

PHP:

check the syntax, i am a mootools-er and use jquery rarely if ever but i am sure this is a normal feature. you really will be much better off by adding the locked class to the actual parent so that you can do a faster check on the hover.

good luck

 

Thanks dimitar christoff ...i hope it will work for me.
