simple question: prototype how to remove Event observer

john_woo

Hi,

I'm using prototype 1.6 for observer/attachEventHandler, like

Event.observe(myDivId,'mouseup', myFunction);

I'm wondering how to remove or stop (or activate/deactivate) this
observer when condition matched?

Also how to present event was used/observed by other observer?
The Event.stop(e) inside myFunction doesn't seem to help with this.

Thanks

By typing in "prototype Event observer" in Google and by pressing "I'm

and in the left menu among other Event methods you see
