I generate the set of buttons within html table as follows and then I want to call to function when it click.
$.each(childData, function(key, item) {
va
You need to use event delegation.
If your table has an id of "button-table", you can create an event handler like so:
$("#button-table").on("click",function(e){
var target = e.target;
console.log($(target).attr("data-id"));
});
Do you want it this way? I have given code for adding an entire table.Check this out
function generate_table() {
// get the reference for the body
var body = document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0];
// creates a <table> element and a <tbody> element
var tbl = document.createElement("table");
var tblBody = document.createElement("tbody");
// creating all cells
for (var i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
// creates a table row
var row = document.createElement("tr");
for (var j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
// Create a <td> element and a text node, make the text
// node the contents of the <td>, and put the <td> at
// the end of the table row
var cell = document.createElement("td");
var cellText = document.createTextNode("cell in row "+i+", column "+j);
cell.appendChild(cellText);
row.appendChild(cell);
}
// add the row to the end of the table body
tblBody.appendChild(row);
}
// put the <tbody> in the <table>
tbl.appendChild(tblBody);
// appends <table> into <body>
body.appendChild(tbl);
// sets the border attribute of tbl to 2;
tbl.setAttribute("border", "2");
}
<input type="button" value="Generate a table." onclick="generate_table()">
Delegate the event to static parent:
$(div).on("click", ".download", function(){
Here div
can be the static parent which was available when page was loaded at first load. Although document
or body
can also be used in place of div
.
As you have not presented how you create div
element but one thing has to be noticed that you are generating an invalid markup. As a td
element can't be a child of div
but table
's tr
.
Try this:
$(document).on('click', '.download', function(){
// Your Code
});
