I add event handlers via:

$( document ).on( 'click', '.name', function(e)

These .name elements are dynamically added.

I can't seem to remove the event handler via:

$('.name').off('click');

Do I need to pass .off() via document to make this work?

*Do I need to pass .off() via document to make this work?* Well, have you tried? What happened? – Roko C. Buljan Feb 26 '18 at 16:00

It didn't remove the handlers. Not with `$('.name').off('click');` – Gary Woods Feb 26 '18 at 16:01
_"I add event handler**s** via"_ - There's only one event handler and that one is attached to the document. – Andreas Feb 26 '18 at 16:01

You can use `$(document).off('click', '.name');` (credit to @Yuri's comment on my now deleted answer). – Rory McCrossan Feb 26 '18 at 16:06
