  1. POView Events not firing on created elements?
    text
    copied!<p>Trying to create a todo example app to mess around with backbone. I cannot figure out why the click event for the checkbox of a task is not firing. Here is my code for the TaskCollection, TaskView, and TaskListView:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function() { Task = Backbone.Model.extend({}); TaskCollection = Backbone.Collection.extend({ model: 'Task' }); TaskView = Backbone.View.extend({ tagName: "li", className: "task", template: $("#task-template").html(), initialize: function(options) { if(options.model) { this.model = options.model } this.model.bind('change',this.render,this); this.render(); }, events: { "click .task-complete" : "toggleComplete" }, render: function(){ model_data = this.model.toJSON(); return $(_.template(this.template, model_data)); }, toggleComplete: function() { //not calling this function console.log("toggling task completeness"); } }); TaskListView = Backbone.View.extend({ el: $("#task-list"), task_views: [], initialize: function(options) { task_collection.bind('add',this.addTask,this); }, addTask: function(task){ task_li = new TaskView({'model' : task}); this.el.append(task_li.render()); this.task_views.push(task_li); }, }); }); </code></pre> <p>Template for the task:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type='text/template' id='task-template'&gt; &lt;li class="task"&gt; &lt;input type='checkbox' title='mark complete' class='task-check' /&gt; &lt;span class='task-name'&gt;&lt;%= name %&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>I can't seem to figure out why the <code>toggleComplete</code> event will not fire for the tasks. how can I fix this?</p>
