thanks josh, and geoff. Josh Canfield wrote:
i have tried both of these approaches but neither cancel the event on the <a>... if yours works what is the fundamental difference?when you click on the text only one click event is created and it bubbles up through the dom. So it first is triggered on the span and then bubbles up to the a and so on. You need to actually cancel the event if you want it to stop bubbling. In prototype you can use the Event.stop() function. <a href="#" id="link"><span id="linkSpan">Observed</span></a> <script> $('link').observe("click", function(e) {alert("You clicked a link!");}); $('linkSpan').observe("click", function(e) { if ( confirm('stop span click event?') ) { Event.stop(e); return false; }}); </script> Hope that helps!

What is the simplest way to add one stage of logic to this process?
