[jQuery] Re: append div trouble [SOLVED]
ok i am trying to do the same thing you are doing, with no success. Only difference is I'm using suckerfish for my navigation menus across the top. The navigation is loaded via an external file, with things like add, search, etc as my main menus. The drop down menus set up nicely, and I have js set up so that when a user selects a menu item, different content is loaded into a div in the middle of the page depending on what they click on. I just switched to livequery, so my js is: $(document).ready(function() { ('#home') .livequery('click', (function() { $('#content').load('index.php') return false; }) ('#search') .livequery('click', (function() { $('#content').load('search.php') return false; }) ); My goal is for the user to always be able to click on the navigation menu and start over or load new content. So if the user chooses search, search.php is loaded, which is a form. They enter the users company name and press submit. Data is shown in the div in the middle of the page. Now I want the user to be able to click on the navigation menu again and search on something different. This does not work - it seems like once data is displayed in the #content div, the navigation menu doesn't work. I guess I thought this was what livequery would do for me. Does anyone have time to look at this and see what I am doing wrong?
[jQuery] Re: append div trouble [SOLVED]
That was it Richard. thanks. I ended up using livequery to rebind the click handler $('#navigation [EMAIL PROTECTED]#]').livequery('click', function(event) { $('#navigation').empty().append(hex); . . that way the append content acts like it used to. you can see it in action here -- http://studio4nine.com/html2/index.html the whole idea was to be able to de link the link you clicked on. a friend of mine helped with setting that up based on the hash in the URL. that way you can deep link the site, since it's only 1 html page. kind of a goofy experiment, but i think it worked out cool. thanks again. gary.
[jQuery] Re: append div trouble
When you do $('#navigation').empty().append(hex); you're adding brand spanking new links to the DOM from straight html. They have no special click-handler applied. Maybe hide them instead of removing them? Then just show to restore? Otherwise, hopefully this will be of some help: http://docs.jquery.com/Frequently_Asked_Questions#Why_do_my_events_stop_working_after_an_Ajax_request.3F - Richard Richard D.
