It looks like when I do $("object").bind("<mouse-event>") the event isn't actually being bound to the element in Chrome and Firefox (not sure about IE). Using $("object").each(function()

Im working on a ajax app and not sure what is the best way to bind events to elements (performance wise).I have a number of elements with 'click', 'focus', 'keydown' events which can be assigned though the delegate to the parent, like so:$('#parent').delegate('#child', 'click', func.....)but is it better to add a delegate to the 'document' for multiple events and use IF statement to filter for elements which should fire an event, like so:[code]Each element can be replaced with an updated version retrieved from the server.

I haven't seen much mention of this on the web, and only recently discovered it works.... not sure if this is somehow bad practice or just a lesser known trick, but lately I've been chaining .ready() at the end of .html() when I want to bind events to new ajax data. I presume it's much more efficient than live(), and avoids racing issues. E.G.:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'myPage.html',
success: function(c){
$(".response").html(c).ready(function() {
bindNewEvent(".response a");
});
});
function bindNewEvent(o) {
$(o).click(funciton() { ...etc... });
};
There's infinite docs about using .ready() to process the document, but not returning HTML. Passing the above along should anyone find it useful or have insight onto why it's seemingly not mentioned elsewhere.
I am trying to "ajaxify" my site. Now I have one problem:
$("#posts").children().remove();
$("#tag-sidebar").children().remove();
$.each(data.Tags_Sidebar, function (indexInArray, valueOfElement) {
var insert = $("<li>");
[Code]......
Now when I click one of those links (href1, href2, href3) generated, the click event won't execute! What's the problem? Also, is it right that I have to transfer the valueOfElement over, like I did? What does stopEventPropagation do? Prevent the href from being navigated to? That's what I am trying to do.

in the language menu shown below, I would like to show the "current_menu" whenit's not visible and clicking on the "current_page" element, and to hide it whenclicking everywhere except in the "current_menu" element.I tried with the "not" selector:
$(":not(#current_menu)").bind('mousedown',function(event) {
$("#current_menu").hide();
event.stopPropagation();
[code]....
which is the recommended way to bind event handlers to elements. Preferably without giving each of them an id. As far as I know, the "classic" way (<input onchange="...">) is considered deprecated and evil. So what is the jQuery way of doing this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedTo make it simpler, i've got a div that I populate with buttons (via AJAX), each button has an ID of some table row. It looks like this:
<div id="mydiv">
</div>
and buttons are defined like this:
<input type="button" id="1" do_something="1" />
Now what happens - when page loads, I'm inserting buttons in that div with "id" attribute changed depending on some row within the database table.
[Code]...
it all works fine. Now, when I add another entry in the database and when I dynamically append yet another button - even tho it has the attribute "do_something" - the click action on it does nothing. I know how to get around this "problem" by adding bind action after I've inserted that button but it's literally duplicating my work. Is there way around this so that every newly inserted element has the action "click" bound to it if it fits the selector?
Did any one use bind inside for-in loop? In my case it never work correctly whatever I do.I'm trying to go through a collection of objects using for-in and bind MouseEnter handler for each object.What happened is the handler I bound to the last object works for all the objects?!

I'm trying to load some html content into a page via the ajax .load() method (wrapped within the $(document).ready() function).After I execute this, I'd like to bind all new span elements from the loaded content to a context menu plugin like this:
$("#selector").contextMenu({
menu: ''myMenu''
},
[code]....
Unfortunately since the span elements are coming from the ajax request,I don't think I can bind a normal event handler as per the plugin. [URL] how to use event bubbling in this situation.

I define a "click" event on "a" tags in the ready part of a page. It fires just fine when I click on any "a" tag on the page. I then have a button which sets the content of a div using ajax. This content contains a couple of "a" tags. The issue now is that the "click" event does NOT fire when clicking on these tags. I suspect it is because they did not exist when the page was initially rendered. What is the "JQuery way" of dealing with an issue like this? Of course I cannot be the only one in the world who needs to return HTML with events from my ajax calls :-)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a dropdown which is created on the fly and it contains several options like below.
<option>A</option>
<option>B</option>
<option>C</option>
<option>C</option>
while creating this i am attaching the change event using live() function. On changing the above option i am recreating the above dropdown again. This dropdown in under a div .For eg:it has an id=1. During the time of recreating the above dropdown,i am dettaching the event handlers using die() and after that i remove the div with id=1.Again i will create a div with id=1 and a dropdown.
The problem now is that when i try to change the option two change events are triggered.I think the die() method haven't worked. Is it because i have created the dropdown under the div with same id?
So, if the action was triggered is dbClick or hover or keypress etc, I can run a function with switch(code]..
is this possible ?
I'm having a hard time figuring out how to refer to an object while inside a jquery event function. In the following example, "this" at first is referenced as #myDiv. But inside the draggable event, "this" refers to something else. I am not sure what it is referring to, but how do I reference the original object (Human) from within this event?
var Person = new Human("#myDiv", "my data");
function Human(element, myName) {
this.name = myName;
[Code].....
I have an div element (lets call it div number 1) that I have attached a click event to using jquery.bind() method. That works fine. I then have another div element (div number 2) that is absolute positioned on top of div 1. Now div number 2 also has a click event binded to it, which works... the problem is when I click div 2 and the click event triggers, so does the click event from div 1... I don't want the click event from div 1 to fire.

Using $.get() and insertBefore() work great for what I'm doing. But, the data I insert does not respond to events that I have set up. I'm notsurprised by this. I'm sure there is something extra I need to do. But, what is that?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the examples for live() and delegate(), the selectors match at least one element that already exists. Will either of these commands work on elements for which there is no match at all on page load?
In my case, I want to bind a keyup event to the textareas that jeditable creates. I could probably create custom plug-in (to the plug-in :) to do the job, but I'd like to use live or delegate if they would work.
is there a way in jQuery to bind variables to function calls similar as prototype.js does it? See [URL]
E.g. in the slideUp method of jQuery you can specify a callback that is called after the effect has finished. I would like to bind a variable to this call so that it is used inside of this callback as a closure.
I have been trying to do the following. Using JS I want to create an
input element (text box) and attach a event listener. I have done in
in two different ways. The first is using xml elements directly (as in
e4x) and the second using the dom method createElement (which is much
clunkier to write). I'd prefer the former. I've included a stripped
down example below.
It appears that when creating an input element using the line:
var inputBox = <input type="text" size="30" />
that it does not have the same properties as when it is created with:
var inputBox2 = document.createElement("input");
because when an event listener is attached using addEventListener, an
error is generated on the first, but not the second.
My thoughts on this are either
1. The namespace for the input element is not correct and whether input
can have a listener attached. However, my guess is that it would not
show up in the first div box. Code:
1. Is there any possibility to find out if mouseover, mouseout or any other mouse event is taking place for the given element right now?
2. Is there any possibility to find out for which element such event is taking place right now?
I need clarification on this particular idea. I believe the elements are not yet loaded into memory/accessible during the first firing of a script in the head tag, so this would cause me an error (or at least it has):
document.getElementById('cText').onkeyup = function addBlurb(e)
So in order to solve this I had to put it inside the onload method of the window. However it seems as if I am missing something here. Any words? Do I have to attach events inside the onload? Are there things I should know relative to this in regards to jQuery (for future reference).
