Hi Charlie.
In a page I have a lot of entries and I am onclick do an edit. So each one must have a unique id. the split allows me to get the id $(document).ready(function() { $('a[id^=doedit_x]').live('click', function(event) { var fullid = this.id; var split = fullid.split("_"); var cid = split[1]; $("div#newcomment").slideUp("slow"); $("div#editcomment_" + cid).show(); var options = { target: '#maintable_' + cid, success: showResponse }; $('#commentform_' + cid).submit(function() { $(this).ajaxSubmit(options); return false; }); lionel28 wrote: > > Charlie, > > Thank you very much. > I was able to do a split so I get actual value from your code and all is > fine. > > I do whatever I want with php, but could you recommend a book for > Javascript. > > Example: for the split I had to do a Google search :thinking: > > A book with all those easy code like yours, like the split would be great. > > Thanks again. > > Charlie Griefer wrote: >> >> You shouldn't need to use a named function, or an inline onclick. >> >> If you can move that id attribute into the tag itself, you could do: >> >> # ... >> >> and then your jQuery would be: >> >> $(document).ready(function() { >> $('a[id^=doedit_]').click(function() { >> alert(this.id); <-- shows that you have a handle on the >> specific >> element that triggered the click >> return false; >> }); >> }) >> >> >> On Mon, Sep 28, 2009 at 4:34 AM, lionel28 <lmarte...@haitiwebs.net> >> wrote: >> >>> >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am trying to get the correct div from a form >>> >>> I did (I intentionally left the brackets open so it displays here) >>> span id="doedit_$comment[commentid]"> a onclick= "return >>> getCommentID($comment[commentid]) >>> >>> and for the jQuery >>> >>> $(document).ready(function() { >>> >>> function getCommentID(cid) >>> { >>> >>> $("#doedit_" + cid).click(function() { >>> >>> $("div#newcomment").slideUp("slow"); >>> $("div#editcomment_" + cid).slideDown("slow"); >>> >>> } >>> }); >>> >>> >>> But nothing is happening. >>> >>> Please what is the proper syntax? >>> >>> Thank you >>> -- >>> View this message in context: >>> http://www.nabble.com/How-to-handle-dynamic-clicks--tp25644199s27240p25644199.html >>> Sent from the jQuery General Discussion mailing list archive at >>> Nabble.com. >>> >>> >> >> >> -- >> Charlie Griefer >> http://charlie.griefer.com/ >> >> I have failed as much as I have succeeded.
