jimfog Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I want to remove the clickhandler from this element here https://jsfiddle.net/fiddlehunt/gvtLd3e9/40/...a tooltip is attached to it. No jquery is used here..so I must resort to nativeJS...namely removeListener. I know that to use removeListener I must know the method/function used originally in the addeventListener..which I do not. SO...what can I do to remove the listener?

Ingolme Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Unfortunately, you can only remove listeners is you have access to the function which was assigned as the event handler. This "tippy" library, if it was built properly, must have some methods to remove tooltips. If not, then your only hope is to recreate the element and delete the old one. // Get the old element var old = document.getElementById("tippy_test"); // Create a new element var replacement = document.createElement("div"); replacement.id = "tippy_test"; replacement.innerHTML = old.innerHTML; // Replace the old element with the new one old.parentNode.insertBefore(replacement, old); old.parentNode.removeChild(old); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
