javascript - How to unbind a listener that is calling event.preventDefault() (using jQuery)?

Question

jquery toggle calls preventDefault() by default, so the defaults don't work. you can't click a checkbox, you cant click a link etc etc

is it possible to restore the default handler?

Answer 1

In my case:

$('#some_link').click(function(event){
    event.preventDefault();
});

$('#some_link').unbind('click'); worked as the only method to restore the default action.
