How to stop events bubbling in jQuery? [duplicate]

According to jQuery's documentation:

$('myclass').bind('amodaldestroy'), function(event) {
    ....does something....
    event.stopPropagation();
});

Use event.stopPropagation();

$('.myclass').bind('amodaldestroy', function(e){
    e.stopPropagation();
});

You can also use return false but there is a subtle difference between the two in that returning false also calls event.preventDefault();
