Different handler within same TR click

$j('table#thisOne tr:gt(0)').hover(function () {
   if ($j(this).next().length != 0) {
     $j(this).find('td:not(:first-child)').css("background", "#f60").css("cursor", "pointer");
   }
}, function () {
   $j(this).find('td').css("background", "").css("cursor", "auto");
});

This code above works fine, i.e. hovering between row 2 to second last row, and second columns.

The following is handling click event for that table:

$j('body').delegate("#thisOne tr:gt(0)", 'click', function () { 
    //I want to do something if second column onward clicked, but not first column 
    //which is a checkbox for other handler.
});

If column 1 has checkbox, How can I distinguish clicking the checkbox and the entire row. Because I want to have different handler between column1 and the rest of the column.

TIA.

The easiest way to do this is to take advantage of stopPropagation. Basically, create your tr click handler, and then create a more specific one for your first column. Something like this:

$('tr').click(function() {
  // handler1
});

$('tr .col1').click(function(event) {
  // handler2
  event.stopPropagation(); // handler1 will not be called now
});
