Unbind Events with JQuery: Does it work with events setup in HTML?
javascript, jquery
Solution
No, it does not. `unbind` will not remove events registered through the inline model. Any event registration model events you create (bound to the same element) will overwrite your inline code, but still, `unbind` will leave those intact. In other words, yes, unbind will only unbind event handlers bound to the element using jQuery.

Problem
I have a few onclick and on mouseover events in my html generated by PHP, something like this: ``` <div onmouseover="fave('heart_<?php echo $row['id']; ?>';" class="heart"><a href=""></a></div> ``` I wish to make use of unbind on the mouseover but it hasn't worked when I tried this: ``` $('#'+ id).unbind('mouseover'); ``` So I am guessing unbind will only work with events created by JQuery? Is there something else I can try? Btw, I can't move my events to a separate js file as each id is unique. Thanks all
