How to unbind a specific event handler

by

You have to use a named function so you can reference that specific handler when calling .unbind(), like this:

function keyUpFunc(e) {
  if (e.keyCode == 27) { functionZzy(); }
}
$(document).keyup(keyUpFunc);

Then later when unbinding:

$(document).unbind("keyup", keyUpFunc);
