I have an issue after adding a element dynamically it doesn\'t have the click event, so i have the following:
$(\".myclass > li\").click(function () {
...
need to use event delegation to support dynamic elements
$(".myclass").on('click', '> li' function () {
...
});
Since the element is added after you bind the event, it doesn't have the handler attached and the bind
function doesn't listen for any new elements that might be added.
Thus, you need to use event delegation. When an event triggers, it will bubble up all the way to the parent document. Using the jQuery .on()
function you can listen for events that have bubbled up from their target.
In your case, you should use the following:
$(parent).on("click", "li", function() { ... });
The above will listen for click
events that occur on li
elements and bubble up to parent
. Inside the event handler this
will refer to the li
element on which the event triggered. In case you don't know the parent, you can listen on document
.
You can learn more about the .on()
function here.
You need to use Event Delegation. You have to use .on() using delegated-events approach.
i.e.
$(document).on('event','selector',callback_function)
In your case
$(document).on('click', '.myclass > li', function () {
...
});
OR if you want to apply to ALL list items:
$(".myclass").on('click', '> li', function () {
...
});
