Question

I’m using the .load() function to load a section of html that has some jQuery functionality that is bound to a certain class. =/

thoughts?

Answer 1

Use live events:

$('.className').live(function(event) {
   ...
}

jQuery keeps a repository of all live selectors such as .className in this case. And it adds a handler to the document to listen for events that bubble up to the document. This special handler then basically runs through all the live selectors and forwards the event to those elements that match the live selectors, if any.

If any of the intermediate event handlers intercept the event and stop it from further propagating before it reaches up to the document, the live handlers will not be executed.
