Event.stopPropagation( ) — do not dispatch an event any further
DOM Level 2 Events
void stopPropagation( );
This method stops the propagation of an event and prevents it from being dispatched to any other Document nodes. It may be called during any phase of event propagation. Note that this method does not prevent other event handlers on the same Document node from being called, but it does prevent the event from being dispatched to any other nodes.
