Hi Richard, you can bind one single event trigger to the document (or a parent element) and use the target property of the event. see: http://docs.jquery.com/Events/jQuery.Event
e.g. $().click( function(ev) { $(ev.target).fadeOut().fadeIn(); }); by(e) Stephan 2009/2/10 Richard <richar...@gmail.com>: > > hello, > > I'm wondering how to access the elements under a mouse click. > At first I tried iterating through all the elements and checking each > one, but as you can guess it was too slow. > Then I tried binding mouse click events to all the elements but it got > messy. > > Is there a way to get a list of elements that the mouse has clicked on > even if they don't have click events defined? > > Richard >
