Bind .live() handler to the current context rather than document

[jollytoad]

to allow something like this:

$('button', container).live('click', function(ev) {

var button = this; ... ev.stopPropagation();

});

events are bound to 'container', and the function prevents further propagation.

Added in r6287

Hello,

i like this feature, but I think the resolution in r6287 is not complete yet. I have opened a new Ticket (​http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/4539) and added a patch for the event and the traversing component, to fix this.

regards alex
