(treeview) Collapsable hitarea

I have a treeview in my application and all works pretty well with it.
I want the toggle +/- button to work as it does by default, but want
the rest of the node to not trigger the collapse/expand event. How
would one go about preventing this behavior? I've checked the other
threads that are similar to my question but didn't get any answers
that actually worked.

Thanks,
Ryan

Anyone?

You have to unbind the click event on the span. Here's what I did:

$("#categories").treeview().find('span.[your span class]').unbind
('click').click(); //replace [your span class] with the class of your
nodes. By default they are 'folder'

the +/- will still collapse and expand, but the label (<span>) will
perform the action you specify.


In addition to that, you can add your own function that will be
executed when the user clicks on that node:

$("#categories").treeview().find('span.[your span class]').unbind
('click').click(function(){
//add the action you want to happen when the user clicks on the node
});

The removes the click event from folders

$("#treeview_id").treeview().find('span.folder').u nbind('click');


If you want to add your own click event, here's how:

$("#treeview_id").treeview().find('span.folder').u nbind('click').click
(function(){
//do something here
});
