Add Click Function To Dynamically Created Html Tags

So I have a div that contains a number of other divs. Each of these other divs has a class called record. I only use this class to select all of these divs.

.live() in this case. This is a perfect situation for jQuery's .delegate() method, which is more efficient.

$("#resultContainer").delegate('.record','click',function() {
    // do stuff here...
});

Only clicks inside the resultContainer need to be processed to see if they match .record, where .live() will need to process every click on the page.

Solution 2:

http://api.jquery.com/live/:

Attach a handler to the event for all elements which match the current selector, now and in the future.

$(".record").live("click", function(e) {
    //do stuff here... 
});

Solution 3:

As of jQuery 1.7 you should use on() instead of live() or delegate(). From the documentation:

As of jQuery 1.7, the .on() method provides all functionality required for attaching event handlers.

The on() method should be attached to a static parent or document:

$(document).on( 'click', '.record', function(e) {
    // do stuff here....
});

Solution 4:

Take a look at the jQuery live() function

http://api.jquery.com/live/

You can add an event listener for all div, regardless of changes in the page

Solution 5:

Try live() method. Instead of:

$(".record").click(function(e) {
    do stuff here....
});

Try this:

$(".record").live(function(e) {
    do stuff here....
});
