How would you unbind all jQuery events from a particular namespace?

Question

Is there a "global" unbind function in jQuery, such that I'd be able to remove all bound events from a given namespace? eg:

// assume these are the events bound to different elements $('#foo').bind('click.myNS', ...); $('#bar').bind('keyup.myNS', ...); $('#baz').bind('dblclick.myNS', ...);      // magic occurs here... $.magicalGlobalUnbindFunction('.myNS');  // ...and afterwards, the three binds from above are gone 

All the examples I've seen for unbind require some elements to be selected first. I guess that technically, you could do $('*').unbind('.myNS'), but that seems very inefficient.

Answer 1

You could add myNS as a class to each of the elements where you want to unbind the events.
