dojo.stopEvent

Prevents propagation and clobbers the default action of the passed event. The same as calling event.preventDefault() and event.stopPropagation() on some passed event.

    ready(function(){
        var node = dom.byId("delete");
        connect.connect(node, "onclick", function(e){
            event.stop(e); // prevents default link execution
            // some code custom execution
        });
    });
