If you want to be able to add this to any elements without having to copy paste the same code over and over again  you can make a directive to do this  It is as simple as below  import  Directive  HostListener  from  quot  angular core quot         Directive       selector   quot  click-stop-propagation  quot     export class ClickStopPropagation        HostListener  quot click quot     quot  event quot        public onClick event  any   void               event stopPropagation             Then just add it to the element you want it on   lt div click-stop-propagation gt Stop Propagation lt  div gt

Disable href link with JavaScript   lt a href     onclick  return yes js login     gt link lt  a gt   yes js login   function             Your code here      return false      How it should also work in TypeScript with Angular  My Version  4 1 2   Template   lt a class  list-group-item list-group-item-action   click   employeesService selectEmployeeFromList  event   false   routerLinkActive     active     routerLink      employees   1   gt      RouterLink  lt  a gt    TypeScript  public selectEmployeeFromList e         e stopPropagation        e preventDefault         console log  This onClick method should prevent routerLink from executing          return false         But it does not disable the executing of routerLink

The simplest is to call stop propagation on an event handler   event works the same in Angular 2  and contains the ongoing event  by it a mouse click  mouse event  etc      click   onEvent  event     on the event handler  we can there stop the propagation   onEvent event       event stopPropagation

Calling stopPropagation on the event prevents propagation     event   quot doSomething  event    event stopPropagation   quot   For preventDefault just return false  event   quot doSomething  event   false quot   Event binding allows to execute multiple statements and expressions to be executed sequentially  separated by   like in   ts files  The result of last expression will cause preventDefault to be called if falsy  So be cautious what the expression returns  even when there is only one
