Subject: [jQuery] Re: jQuery and the 'this' keyword
Would you recommend using the .bind(type, data, fn) function to
achieve what i'm trying to do? Or could you steer me in the right
direction? I'm surprised that the .click() works in that manner. How
would you dynamically assign that function to that button?
