Selectable: anchor in selectable is not clickable

[how]

anchor does not work in Firefox 3.05 when inside a selectable div. Opera works.

$(document).ready(function(){

$(".column").selectable(); $("a").click(function(){

alert("test");

});

});

<div class="column" id="col1"> <a>test</a> </div>

Possible fix; I had the same issue and added the "a" tag to the cancel option, like so:

$("#imageList").selectable({

stop: function(){

bunch of unrelated stuff

}, cancel: ":input,option,a"

});

Before I added this, I wasn't getting anything from my a tags. Perhaps "a" should be added to the default options, along with input?

Thanks alot the cancel works great !

Can you provide the use case where you would not use the events provided to you with the selectable widget to handle what you are trying to do?
