Question

I’m creating a link in jquery when you click on another link.

The problem is that I want to generate an alert when you click on this new link, but does not trigger the action!

$('#test').click(function() {
    $("<div/>").html('<a href="#" id="remove">Remove</a>').appendTo("#results");
});

$('#remove').click(function() {
    alert('lol');
});​

Answer 1

You should use delegate

$('#test').click(function() {
    $("<div/>").html('<a href="#" id="remove">Remove</a>').appendTo("#results");
});

$(window).delegate('#remove','click',  function() {
    alert('lol');
});​
