jQuery plugin for to track clicks outside of an element.
This plugins does not stop propagation of events, compared to other similar solutions, which makes it absolutely safe to use.
$('.box').clickout(function(){...});
Also works with normal binding:
$('.box').on('clickout', function(){...});
// or
$('.box').bind('clickout', function(){...});
And to unbind
$('.box').off('clickout');
// or
$('.box').unbind('clickout');
This plugin implement the native jQuery.event.special.
In case of a touch device, the 'touchstart' event is used in place of 'click', as Webkit mobile doesn't register 'click' events on every element.
