preventDefault() does not work in Kendo grid's custom click handler

Question

I've added the custom click handler for Kendo grid's "Add new record" button, but JavaScript's preventDefault() function does not seem to work on it.

$('.k-header').on('click', '.k-grid-add', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    e.stopPropagation();
    // do something else
});

I would like that "Add new record" button does something else than adds the new row in grid.

Full code example: JSFIDDLE

Answer 1

This works

$('.k-grid-add').click(function(e) {
    // do something else
    return false;
});
