Question

Ok so i have this relevant code in jQuery:

myself.insertAfter('.archive:last');

‘myself’ is just a variable containing a selector. So I remove the unnecessary class from it and apply the new one: ‘archive’. However, when i click the newly inserted element, the actions i want to run after clicking an element with a class of ‘archive’ on it, does not happen. Now i know why this is happening, i just dont know how to solve it. I need to unbind the original click handler and apply a new one, but how!?

Answer 1

Stab in the dark here but I’m assuming your click handler uses

$("some selector").click(function(e) { ... });

Use the on method instead

$("parent selector").on("click", "some selector", function(e) { ... });
