[jQuery] Unbinding event for specific element after binding for entire document

[nandu]

Dear Folks,

I have a problem where I bind a click function to the entire document,
but then want to unbind it for a specific element in this case a
textarea, so that, clicks inside the textarea do not trigger the bound
function.

Could using namespaces solve the problem.  Moreover is namespace
functionality available in jQuery 1.2.1

I have provided a simplified framework the jQuery code I am using to
to do this below:


entire_document.bind('click', function(e)
        {
                 jQuery('#textareaid').unbind('click');  //Trying to unbind 
click
for a sepcific element
                 if (condition)
                 {
                        // do some stuff
                 }
                 else
                 {
                         // do some other stuff
                 }
                 entire_document.unbind('click');
        });
