Disable Button Listener inside a popover content using Bootstrap

I want to submit different input data using the same pre-generated html form template (they just have different variable names as titles). On my page, I have two buttons which have basically the same popover effects. When I clicked submit (this is the button inside a .popover-content, it appears that I submit both forms even though one of them is hidden.
function handlePopover (button) {
const id = button.attr('id');
$(document).on('click', '#close', function(){
botton.popover('hide');
}
$(document).on('click', '#submit', function(){
if(id === 'button1') alert("button1");
else if(id === 'button2') alert("button2");
}
}
This is how I used this function:
const button1 = $("#button1");
const button2 = $("#button2");
handlePopover(button1);
handlePopover(button2);
It's probably because I added a listener like this $(document).on(...). But I didn't know how to solve this problem. Can I deactivate the listener when the popover content is hidden? Thank you in advance!

I have figured this out. You need to add a listener to the popover button before adding a listener to the submit button.
button.on('shown.bs.popover', function() {
// add a listener to the submit button
$(document).on('click', '#submit', function(){
if(id === 'button1') alert("button1");
else if(id === 'button2') alert("button2");
}
}

Kendo toolbar button not firing click event after being enabled

This is my logic, here I am trying to disable the save changes button and prevent click event on it if the user enters a duplicate value and enable it again if the user changes the values but after enabling it the update / save event does not occur am I doing something wrong? This is my code
function OnChange(data) {
//data.preventDefault();
$(".k-grid-save-changes")
.attr("role", "button")
.removeClass("k-state-disabled")
//.addClass("k-grid-save-changes")
.click(function () {
return true;
});
//console.log("data", data.items["0"].ProviderTypeName);
var name = data.items["0"].ProviderTypeName;
var Id = data.items["0"].Id;
var grid = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
//console.log("Grid ", grid);
grid.tbody.find('>tr').each(
function () {
$(this).css('background', 'white');
var dataItem = grid.dataItem(this);
//console.log(dataItem.ProviderTypeName)
if (dataItem.ProviderTypeName == name && dataItem.Id != Id) {
$(this).css('background', 'red');
$(".k-grid-save-changes")
//.removeClass("k-grid-save-changes")
.addClass("k-state-disabled")
//.removeAttr("role")
.click(function () {
return false;
});
}
});
}
This is where is call the on change event
.Events(events => events.RequestStart("OnRequestStart").Change("OnChange").RequestEnd("OnRequestEnd").Error("onError"))
If I remove the "return false;" it is working as expected but this allows duplicated values to be saved. So I have used this.

If I understand correctly in your code you do exactly what you mention as a problem. At every change you disable the save functionality with the return false. You don't enable it again at any point.
If you add an event handler to the button then you have to undo it at a later point. Since though I don't believe that the validation should occur at the change event but at the button click I would suggest to use the grid Save event where you could iterate dataSource.data() of your grid (much better) do your check and if anything happens return false.
One other way to go since you probably want the css effect with the background is to keep your code and discard the click event. Just set a flag that you could use in the save event. Something like this:
if(// your control){
$(this).css('background', 'red');
duplicatedValue = true;
}else{
.removeClass("k-grid-save-changes");
duplicatedValue = false;
}
And in the save event
function onSave(){
if(duplicatedValue){
return false;
}
}

Intercept clicks, make some calls then resume what the click should have done before

Good day all, I have this task to do:
there are many, many many webpages, with any kind of element inside, should be inputs, buttons, links, checkboxes and so on, some time there should be a javascript that could handle the element behaviour, sometimes it is a simple ... link.
i have made a little javascript that intercepts all the clicks on clickable elements:
$( document ).ready(function() {
$('input[type=button], input[type=submit], input[type=checkbox], button, a').bind('click', function(evt, check) {
if (typeof check == 'undefined'){
evt.preventDefault();
console.log("id:"+ evt.target.id+", class:"+evt.target.class+", name:"+evt.target.name);
console.log (check);
$(evt.target).trigger('click', 'check');
}
});
});
the logic is: when something is cllicked, I intercept it, preventDefault it, make my track calls and then resme the click by trigger an event with an additional parameter that will not trigger the track call again.
but this is not working so good. submit clicks seams to work, but for example clicking on a checkbox will check it, but then it cannot be unchecked, links are simply ignored, I track them (in console.log() ) but then the page stay there, nothing happens.
maybe I have guessed it in the wrong way... maybe i should make my track calls and then bind a return true with something like (//...track call...//).done(return true); or something...
anyone has some suggestions?

If you really wanted to wait with the click event until you finished with your tracking call, you could probably do something like this. Here's an example for a link, but should be the same for other elements. The click event in this example fires after 2seconds, but in your case link.click() would be in the done() method of the ajax object.
google
var handled = {};
$("#myl").on('click', function(e) {
var link = $(this)[0];
if(!handled[link['id']]) {
handled[link['id']] = true;
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
//simulate async ajax call
window.setTimeout(function() {link.click();}, 2000);
} else {
//reset
handled[link['id']] = false;
}
});
EDIT
So, for your example, this would look something like this
var handled = {};
$( document ).ready(function() {
$('input[type=button], input[type=submit], input[type=checkbox], button, a').bind('click', function(evt) {
if(!handled[evt.target.id]) {
handled[evt.target.id] = true;
evt.preventDefault();
evt.stopPropagation();
$.ajax({
url: 'your URL',
data: {"id" : evt.target.id, "class": evt.target.class, "name": evt.target.name},
done: function() {
evt.target.click();
}
});
} else {
handled[evt.target.id] = false;
}
});

X-Editable: stop propagation on "click to edit"

I have an editable element inside a div which itself is clickable. Whenever I click the x-editable anchor element, the click bubbles up the DOM and triggers a click on the parent div. How can I prevent that? I know it's possible to stop this with jQuery's stopPropagation() but where would I call this method?
Here's the JSFiddle with the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/4RZvV/ . To replicate click on the editable values and you'll see that the containing div will catch a click event. This also happens when I click anywhere on the x-editable popup and I'd like to prevent that as well.
EDIT after lightswitch05 answer
I have multiple dynamic DIVs which should be selectable so I couldn't use a global variable. I added an attribute to the .editable-click anchors which get's changed instead.
editable-active is used to know if the popup is open or not
editable-activateable is used instead to know if that .editable-click anchor should be treated like it is
$(document).on('shown', "a.editable-click[editable-activateable]", function(e, reason) {
return $(this).attr("editable-active", true);
});
$(document).on('hidden', "a.editable-click[editable-activateable]", function(e, reason) {
return $(this).removeAttr("editable-active");
});
The check is pretty much like you've described it
$(document).on("click", ".version", function() {
$this = $(this)
// Check that the xeditable popup is not open
if($this.find("a[editable-active]").length === 0) { // means that editable popup is not open so we can do the stuff
// ... do stuff ...
}
})

For the click on the links, simply catch the click event and stop it:
$("a.editable-click").click(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
});
The clicks within X-editable are a bit trickier. One way is to save a flag on weather the X-editable window is open or not, and only take action if X-editable is closed
var editableActive = false;
$("a.editable-click").on('shown', function(e, reason) {
editableActive = true;
});
$("a.editable-click").on('hidden', function(e, reason) {
editableActive = false;
});
$("div.version").click(function(e) {
var $this;
$this = $(this);
if(editableActive === false){
if ($this.hasClass("selected")) {
$(this).removeClass("selected");
} else {
$(this).addClass("selected");
}
}
});
Fixed Fiddle

It's not pretty, but we solved this problem with something like:
$('.some-class').click(function(event) {
if(event.target.tagName === "A" || event.target.tagName === "INPUT" || event.target.tagName === "BUTTON"){
return;
}
We're still looking for a solution that doesn't require a specific list of tagNames that are okay to click on.

Hiding Bootstrap Popover on Click Outside Popover

I'm trying to hide the Bootstrap Popover when the user clicks anywhere outside the popover. (I'm really not sure why the creators of Bootstrap decided not to provide this functionality.)
I found the following code on the web but I really don't understand it.
// Hide popover on click anywhere on the document except itself
$(document).click(function(e) {
// Check for click on the popup itself
$('.popover').click(function() {
return false; // Do nothing
});
// Clicking on document other than popup then hide the popup
$('.pop').popover('hide');
});
The main thing I find confusing is the line $('.popover').click(function() { return false; });. Doesn't this line add an event handler for the click event? How does that prevent the call to popover('hide') that follows from hiding the popover?
And has anyone seen a better technique?
Note: I know variations of this question has been asked here before, but the answers to those questions involve code more complex than the code above. So my question is really about the code above

I made http://jsfiddle.net/BcczZ/2/, which hopefully answers your question
Example HTML
<div class="well>
<a class="btn" data-toggle="popover" data-content="content.">Popover</a>
<a class="btn btn-danger bad">Bad button</a>
</div>
JS
var $popover = $('[data-toggle=popover]').popover();
//first event handler for bad button
$('.bad').click(function () {
alert("clicked");
});
$(document).on("click", function (e) {
var $target = $(e.target),
var isPopover = $target.is('[data-toggle=popover]'),
inPopover = $target.closest('.popover').length > 0
//Does nothing, only prints on console and wastes memory. BAD CODE, REMOVE IT
$('.bad').click(function () {
console.log('clicked');
return false;
});
//hide only if clicked on button or inside popover
if (!isPopover && !inPopover) $popover.popover('hide');
});
As I mentioned in my comment, event handlers don't get overwritten, they just stack. Since there is already an event handler on the .bad button, it will be fired, along with any other event handler
Open your console in the jsfiddle, press 5 times somewhere on the page (not the popover button) and then click bad button you should see clicked printed the same amount of times you pressed
Hope it helps
P.S:
If you think about it, you already saw this happening, especially in jQuery.
Think of all the $(document).ready(...) that exist in a page using multiple jquery plugins. That line just registers an event handler on the document's ready event

I just did a more event based solution.
var $toggle = $('.your-popover-button');
$toggle.popover();
var hidePopover = function() {
$toggle.popover('hide');
};
$toggle.on('shown', function () {
var $popover = $toggle.next();
$popover.on('mousedown', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
$toggle.on('mousedown', function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
});
$(document).on('mousedown',hidePopover);
});
$toggle.on('hidden', function () {
$(document).off('mousedown', hidePopover);
});

short answer
insert this to bootstrap min.js
when popout onblur will hide popover
when popout more than one, older popover will be hide
$count=0;$(document).click(function(evt){if($count==0){$count++;}else{$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover('hide');$count=0;}});$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover();$('[data-toggle="popover"]').on('click', function(e){$('[data-toggle="popover"]').not(this).popover('hide');$count=0;});

None of the above solutions worked 100% for me because I had to click twice on another, or the same, popover to open it again. I have written the solution from scratch to be simple and effective.
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover({
html:true,
trigger: "manual",
animation: false
});
$(document).on('click','body',function(e){
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').each(function () {
$(this).popover('hide');
});
if (e.target.hasAttribute('data-toggle') && e.target.getAttribute('data-toggle') === 'popover') {
e.preventDefault();
$(e.target).popover('show');
}
else if (e.target.parentElement.hasAttribute('data-toggle') && e.target.parentElement.getAttribute('data-toggle') === 'popover') {
e.preventDefault();
$(e.target.parentElement).popover('show');
}
});

My solution, works 100%, for Bootstrap v3
$('html').on('click', function(e) {
if(typeof $(e.target).data('original-title') !== 'undefined'){
$('[data-original-title]').not(e.target).popover('hide');
}
if($(e.target).parents().is('[data-original-title]')){
$('[data-original-title]').not($(e.target).closest('[data-original-title]')).popover('hide');
}
if (typeof $(e.target).data('original-title') == 'undefined' &&
!$(e.target).parents().is('.popover.in') && !$(e.target).parents().is('[data-original-title]')) {
$('[data-original-title]').popover('hide');
}
});
