Prevent scroll event in jQuery

Question

Is it possible to prevent scroll event in jQuery?

I've tried this code, but it didn't work.

$('*').scroll(function(event){
  event.stopPropagation();
  event.preventDefault();
  return false;
})

You can disable scrolling within certain element areas using the following:

$("element,element2").bind("touchmove",function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
});

Just set the body CSS to disable the scroll.

body {    
   overflow: hidden; 
}

well.. i worked with wrong event. touchmove was exactly what i'm looked for. so

$('body').bind('touchmove', function(e){
  e.preventDefault();
});
