jQuery data() and 'changeData' event

I can add a click event to an HTML element and have the click event update $(document).data(key,value).

This would then trigger $(document).bind('changeData', function() {...})). Knowing this, what would be the best way to find out which HT开发者_开发百科ML element updated $(document).data()?

E.g.:

$(document).bind('changeData', function {
  // get the anchor that set $(document).data()
});

$('a').click(function() {
  $(document).data('key', 'value');
});

Well for the data by click event:

$('#elementSelector').click(function(e){
    $(document).data(key, val);
});

$(document).bind('changeData', function(e){
    // e.target?
});

If not, try storing the target within the data stored:

$('#elementSelector').click(function(e){
    $(document).data(key, {
        val: 'value',
        target: e.target
    });
});

Then when you have the change event:

$(document).bind('changeData', function(e){
    var data = $(this).data(key);
    var target = data.target;
    var value  = data.val;
});

jQuery's setData and changeData events have been deprecated since 1.8 and removed in 1.9. This means that in 2.X and 3.X you're no longer able to bind to these events.
