javascript - Jquery Remove All Event Handlers Inside Element

Question

I have a div element with several elements inside it like buttons and so forth which have event handlers attached to them. I know its possible to go:

$("#button1").off()

To remove the handler for a button but I would like to do something like this if possible:

$("#div1").removeChildHandlers();

Is there a native function in JQuery to do this or would I have to loop them all the elements and remove 1 by 1?

Answer 1

jQuery will do the looping for you for just the direct children:

$("#div1").children().off();

or if you want all descendants:

$("#div1").find("*").off();
