This question is similar to my previous question, Click action on Focused DIV , but this time the main topic is, How to prevent focus event from triggering when I click one of the divs. Last time I had one div with tabindex='-1' to make it focusable on click, now I have a list of divs with tabindex>0 so they can gain focus when tabbing as well. <div tabindex='1'>Div one</div> <div tabindex='1'>Div two</div> <div tabindex='1'>Div tree</div> <div tabindex='1'>Div four</div> some styling: div { height: 20px; width: 60%; border: solid 1px blue; text-align: center; } div:focus { border: solid 2px red; outline: none; } Now I'm using a flag(action) to fire an action(alert) when clicking the div for 2nd time, and with just one click if it's already focused,with TAB for example. var action = false; $('div') .click(function(e){ e.stopImmediatePropagation(); if(action){alert('action');} action = true;}) .focus(function(){action = true;}) .blur(function(){action = false;}); The problem with the code above is focus event is being fired, which means stopImmediatePropagation doesn't work the way I expected.. The two click action works commenting the focus event line, but you still need to double click when div gains focus on TAB. Here is the example: http://jsfiddle.net/3MTQK/1/
