jQuery off() Method
The off() method in jQuery is used to remove event handlers attached with the on() method.
Syntax
The syntax is as follows −
$(selector).off(event,selector,function(eventOb),map)
Above, the event parameter specifies one or more events or namespaces to remove from the selected element(s), function(eventOb) is the function to run when the event occurs. The map parameter is the event map.
