Event Handling in jQuery
In the previous part of this series I discussed how
HTML DOM can be manipulated using jQuery. Now let's proceed with one of the most common task you do in JavaScript - handling events. jQuery streamlines the JavaScript event handling mechanism by providing you a uniform and easy way to wire events with their handlers without bothering about the cross browser issues. As an example we will create a custom context menu (shortcut menu or right click menu) that displays some options specific to our website instead of the normal context menu of the browser.
