Unbind

How to unbind editable of a control?

Thanks

I would imagine something like $(this).unbind(<action>) would work. Where this is the element with the .editable class, and <action> is the class to trigger editable (click, dblclick), etc...

if you want to remove the editable ability from the field, just removeClass('editable').

If you want to unbind the previous editable action before running the editable action again, inside your jquery.editable.js, near the bottom in the edit.register function, you can do trigger.unbind(action).bind(action, edit.start); or something similar.

I just had to do the unbind(action) thing in my current project due to a bug where my code was calling the editable plugin multiple times on a single element/input which was causing the input to become blank and lose the e.target.old_value
