Variable keeps old value

Question

Whenever i click the \'#print\' button for the second time, the value from the first click prints out before the real value.

For example: I click button for the first t

You are registering multiple events and that is why you see multiple actions! Did you see that? :) I had a similar situation and it took me a while to pick those out. You can unregister for the old event before issuing the new one.

   $(".ipdate").focus(function() {

        /*$('.dateBox').hide();*/

        var tit = $(this).attr('id');
        /*var full = '#'+tit+'B';*/

        $('#dateBox').show();

        $('#print').off('click');
        $('#print').on('click', function(){

            var bottle = $('.sday').val()+' '+$('.smon').val()+' '+$('.syear').val();
            $('#'+tit).val(bottle);
            alert(tit);

        });

        $('#close').off('click');
        $('#close').on('click',function() {

           $('#dateBox').hide(); 

        });



    });

This should fix your issue. Using off will unregister the old events.
