Shortest way of attaching multiple DOM elements to one event handler using Jquery?
- by Camsoft
I need to attach a single event handler to multiple DOM elements using jQuery. I'm currently achieving this using jQuery's each() method. See below:
$([elm1, elm2, elm3]).each(function() {
this.click(eventHandler);
});
I was wondering if there is a way to do this without using the each method and closure. I thought I would be able to do something like:
$(elm1, elm2, elm3).click(eventHandler);
This kind of statement works using Prototype.js but not in jQuery.The reason I ask the question is because after using both Prototype.js and jQuery I have found that jQuery requires simpler statements to achieve the same tasks in almost every area so I assume there must be a better way of doing this?
