I want to stop propagation of this div's onclick event to the document? When the user click on the "div", both alerts appear: 1) the div's alert and 2) the document's alert. I want to suppress the document alert.
I know how to do it using addEventListener, but is there another way to to do it? The problem below is that I don't know how to get ahold of the event -- I tried "event = element.onclick", shown below, but that doesn't work. How do I get the event?
<head>
<script>
function showMenu(element) {
alert("div clicked");
event = element.onclick; // HOW TO GET HOLD OF THE EVENT?
// Don't propogate the event to the document
if (event.stopPropagation) {
event.stopPropagation(); // W3C model
} else {
event.cancelBubble = true; // IE model
}
}
document.onclick = function() {
alert('document clicked');
};
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="foodmenu" onclick="showMenu(this);">Click inside this div</div>
or click outside the div.
</body>
