    <p>I'm having some problems with my view handling it's events. They simply don't fire. The view has it's html from a template that looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/template" id="intro-slide-template"&gt; &lt;div class="slide intro" id="intro-slide"&gt; &lt;a href="#" class="startpresentation" id="start-btn"&gt; &lt;%= startpresentation %&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>So far so good. The view code itself look's like this:</p> <pre><code> /* ********* Slide View ********* */ window.IntroSlideView = Backbone.View.extend({ initialize: function(){ this.template = _.template($("#intro-slide-template").html()); }, render: function(){ $(this.el).html(this.template(this.model.toJSON())); }, events: { "click #start-btn": "clickHandler" }, clickHandler: function() { console.log("IntroSlideView :: clickHandler"); } }); </code></pre> <p>This is how I render the slide to the main app's view:</p> <pre><code>/* ********* App View ********* */ window.AppView = Backbone.View.extend({ el: $("#content"), initialize: function(){ _.bindAll(this, 'render'); //render this.render(); }, render: function(){ this.el.innerHTML = ""; var slide = this.model.get("currentSlide"); slide.render(); this.el.innerHTML = slide.el.innerHTML; } }); </code></pre> <p>The view is getting rendered to the screen perfectly, and it works just like it should. But the click event is not firing.</p> <p>When I inspect the slide view object, I can see that it do haves el object with the right HTML in it, including the button that has to fire a click event.</p> <p>And when I log the view's events, I see that they are set:</p> <pre><code>Object click #start-btn: "clickHandler" __proto__: Object </code></pre>

    1. COI think you are copying the innerHTML from the slide view to the app view, but not the event handlers. Do you use jQuery?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
