Complex Selectors with jQuery Delegate
- by Keith Rousseau
Is there a restriction on the complexity of selectors that can be used with delegate in jQuery 1.4.2?
This works for me:
$('.activeTabsList').delegate('.activeTabsListItem', 'click',
function() {
alert('here');
});
This does not work:
$('.activeTabsList').delegate('.activeTabsListItem:not(.selected)', 'click',
function() {
alert('here');
});
As you can probably assume, there is only 1 item at a time that has the selected class. When I click the other tabs, my delegate handler is still not fired.
