I have this DEMO situation:

I'm using a "onClick" on a table row (tr), but I also have a second link on the X image to delete that row... but when I click on the X link, I'm redirect to the tr link too... How can I use the link on the X without redirect to the link on the row?
You can try to use a jQuery event handler for the X button as well. In the event handler for the X button, call event.stopPropagation();. This stops the event from bubbling, preventing the parent from handling the event.
An example:
$('.xbtn').click(function(event){
event.stopPropagation();
...// do stuff
}

Hey I have a div which is wrapped by a Link component, and inside that div I have more buttons, but the problem is, when I click on the inner smaller buttons, I actually click on the Link component as well, so I get redirected which is not what I want... How do I fix this?
it seems as though both the link and the button get clicked but if i am intending to click the button only i want to avoid the parent link.
What I mean is, the Link is used to navigate to some URL when you click on it. Putting elements inside that for other tasks. like a blog post, you click on the parent it will redirect you, but on the child the button will allow you to delete it
was coding this in nodejs react so i was using onClick events
example
<Link to="/blog-post">
<div className="link-post-container">
...blog
<button className='deleteButton'></button>
</div>
</Link>
I have tried event.stopPropagation on the button but it still doesn't seem to do anything. Is it because the Link is an href instead of a onClick?
SOLUTION
so using some of the possible solutions below i started messing around and noticed by in the onClick of the deleteButton, if i add the following in, it works:
event.preventDefault()
with this, the redirect because of the href does not occur anymore and only the button click event will take place
const handleClick = event => {
event.stopPropagation()
// then write rest of your onclick code
}
<button className='deleteButton' onClick={handleClick}></button>
The click event propagates from the button upwards in the DOM tree until it reaches the root (simplified explanation - you can learn more about event propagation here). This is why the link also registers it and runs its onclick handler, redirecting you to another site.
You can call event.stopPropagation() inside your button's onClick handler to stop the event from reaching the encapsulating link.

I have a primefaces p:treeTable, inside that I define a column includes 2 components: span tag and h:outputText tag. Currently, if I click on one of these elements, select event of table is triggered. But my purpose is that the select event will be fired only if I click of the text (and not for the span element). How can I do that?
You can prevent the event from bubbling up the DOM, by using JQuery's event.stopPropagation() function.
<span id="someId" onclick="if(event.stopPropagation) event.stopPropagation();">...</span>
JQuery API - event.stopPropagation
I want to track clicks on the following button/link with Google Tag Manager. I created a trigger in Google Tag Manager that triggers when the element_id = 100. This works fine, except that when I click exactly on the text, it doesn't do anything, the link looks like a button, with the text in the middle of it. I can't change anything to the html or css, otherwise I can think of multiple things, so I need to find a solution without changing the html. Also, the 'myclass' class and the 'label' class get used in other elements.
<a class="myclass" id="100" href="http://www.url.com">
<span class="label">Text</span>
</a>
Anyone an idea?
Thanks a lot,
The following workaround worked:
Create trigger when element text contains "Text". This will trigger events on the button and the label on the button, of all buttons with "Text" as label.
Create tag for that trigger that checks with simple javascript if either the id of the current element = 100, which will happen when you click the button but not the label, or that the id of the parent = 100, which happens when you click the label. You can get the element that triggered the tag using the built-in variable "Click Element". Which you need to access the parent element.
Technically, you shouldn't have a CSS ID that starts with (or is) a number, so not sure if your code example is accurate or not. Whatever the case, you're probably better off using "matches CSS selector" so that you don't need to use any custom JS.
If indeed your HTML uses id="100", then the above will work. If it's anything else that doesn't start with a number, then you can use
#whatever > span
I have a radiobuttongroup where one button is checked upon pageload, is it possible to get some kind of onClick event to fire from that radiobutton upon pageload if it's checked?
I dont whant to use some kind onLoad JavaScript to check it.
$('.radioButton:checked').live('click', function(){
// do something
});
If I understood what you need, you could try something like this (jQuery):
if($('.radioButton').is(':checked')) { $('.whatever_must_be_clicked).click(); }
for the first selector, you can also use the :radio selector $(':radio') or $('input:radio')
I have a link which opens a table on the same page if user clicks on the link. What I want to know is that is there another way to link on the same page rather than doing this:
[Open Grid]
This is because in the url it displays # at the end of the url so I want to know is there another way to link on the same page than href="#".
Thanks
Why even use an <a> tag if you are just binding an event handler to the element. Just use a <span> and style it. You can even give it cursor:pointer if you want that link feel/look
just return false in javascript and the link will not be followed when clicked, but you can still open your tables using js, as i suspect you do right now
as I understand you alread have some function binded to the click event of this link, right? if so you can just use href="javascript:void(0)", this way is much better, because in this case browser doesn't add a context menu items such as "Open link in new tab" or "Copy link address" to this link.
If you're using Javascript to detect when an element is clicked, you don't have to use tha anchor tag, or the href attribute.
You could do <a id="showGrid">Open Grid</a> and then something like $('a#showGrid').click(...); if using jQuery. To get the "link cursor" you can do a {cursor: pointer} in CSS. It'll look the same, but you won't get that # in the browser's address bar.
