How to stop an submit event?

Question

I am calling a function when form is submitting.

$('#form-target').submit(function(){
    makechange();
    return false;
});

But in some case i want to stop this event.

if there is an error in the `makechange()` function, this could happen.. — reyaner, Nov 26 '13 at 12:48
