Question

I have A function in jquery which goes to a php file, which querys a database returns the results in a table with a button in each row,
how do i access the buttons in the page that the jquery is on. here is some code

//function to get table form php file with button on each row
function show(str)
{

$.post('INCLUDES/gettable.php',{club: str},
    function(output)
    {

        $('#box').html(output).show();
    });

}
 //when button from table is clicked do something
   $("button").click(function()
  {
      alert("hello");
   }

Any help is appreciated

Answer 1

Use live() or better on() (comes with latest version of jQuery) for dynamically generated html/data:

$("button").on('click', function()
{
  alert("hello");
}

Or

$("button").live('click', function()
{
  alert("hello");
}
