I would like to know the difference between this:

$('#foo').click(function() {
  alert('User clicked on "foo."');
});

and this

$('#foo').bind('click', function() {
  alert('User clicked on "foo."');
});

(I read the documentation but I’m still not getting it).

    $().click(fn) and $().bind('click', fn) are identical at first sight, but the $.bind version is more powerful for 2 reasons:

    • $().bind() allows you to assign one handler to multiple events, e.g. $().bind('click keyup', fn).
    • $().bind() supports namespaced events – a powerful feature if you want to remove $().unbind) only certain event handlers that an element is bound to.
