[jQuery] Re: Firebug shows Too Much Recursion errors after clicking OK in alert box

[Jonathan Sharp]

This could also be written as:

$('a').click(function() {
   if ($(this).parents('#nav').size() == 0) {
      alert('...');
      return false;
   }
});

-js

You don't need to wrap the parameter to not in $(...). Maybe try:

$("a").not("#nav a").click(function() { alert('...'); return false; });
