How to undo event.stopPropagation in jQuery?

Question

I'm using event.stopPropagation() in my application. There has appeared, however, one scenario where I want the propagation to continue as if the aforementioned function was never called. So I'm wondering; is there a way to "resume" propagation after it's been stopped? It would be terribly tedious to move the one call to event.stopPropagation to a dozen separate conditional statements.

Answer 1

Once propagation has been stopped, it cannot be resumed. As a workaround, what you can do is set a variable, and then only stop if this variable is true:

var stop = false;
// do your logic here
if(stop){
    event.stopPropagation();
}
