Description
see http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-en/msg/1e858147be506d1b
i ran into the same problem. John suggest that an entry be made here for the problem, but i couldn't find it anywhere.
example...
<table><tr><td onclick="$(this).find('a').click()">
<a onclick="alert(1);">link</a>
</td></tr></table>
when you click on the TD, the onclick handler associated with the A doesn't get called.
it would be nice if this worked so that the "drop-in and work" capability of jquery is maintained. not everyone wants to rewrite their site to strip out all the onclick events.
Thanks.
