Question

I have several text inputs in my page. They have different classes added to them. Depending on the class they each have, I add an onchange event handler. Everything worked OK, until they all shared one common class, then I add common onchange handler again. The first oen gets overwritten.

Is there a way to add another handler and not overwrite the precious one?

Answer 1

They should not get overwritten.

You should be able to do:

$('.className').change(function(){
    alert('here')
})

$('.className').change(function(){
    alert('over here')
})

And you should see both alerts
