Overcoming live() events and stopPropagation

As long as the parent element detect that the event was triggered by an anchor, it stop executing.

This is a method to replace stopPropagation() function which doesn't work in live() events.

$('body').live('click', function(e) {
// bail out if this event was triggered by an anchor
if ( $(e.target).is('a') ) { return; }

// do cool stuff down here
});
