    <p>I want to bind an onclick event to an element I insert dynamically with jQuery</p> <p>But It never runs the binded function. I'd be happy if you can point out why this example is not working and how I can get it to run properly:</p> <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false"> <div class="snippet-code"> <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt; &lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="da" lang="da"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;title&gt;test of click binding&lt;/title&gt; &lt;script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; jQuery(function(){ close_link = $('&lt;a class="" href="#"&gt;Click here to see an alert&lt;/a&gt;'); close_link.bind("click", function(){ alert('hello from binded function call'); //do stuff here... }); $('.add_to_this').append(close_link); }); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;h1 &gt;Test of click binding&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;problem: to bind a click event to an element I append via JQuery.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div class="add_to_this"&gt; &lt;p&gt;The link is created, then added here below:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="add_to_this"&gt; &lt;p&gt;Another is added here below:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt;</code></pre> </div> </div> </p> <p><strong>EDIT: I edited the example to contain two elements the method is inserted to.</strong> In that case, the <code>alert()</code> call is never executed. (thanks to @Daff for pointing that out in a comment)</p>

    2. CO@Daff Unfortunately you're right! Then I have apparently extracted the part of my code that actually works. Thanks for pointing that out!

    3. CO@Daff, I edited the example so it containts two places to insert the method. Then it _really_ stopped working :)

Querying!

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

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