Perhaps I'm using $.data incorrectly.
Assigning the data:
var course_li = sprintf('<li class="draggable course">%s</li>', course["fields"]["name"]);
$(course_li).data('pk', course['pk']);
alert(course['pk']); // shows a correct value
Moving the li
to a different ul
:
function moveToTerm(item, term) {
item.fadeOut(function() {
item.appendTo(term).fadeIn();
});
}
Trying to access the data later:
$.each($(term).children(".course"), function(index, course) {
var pk = $(course).data('pk');
// pk is undefined
courses.push(pk);
});
What am I doing wrong? I have confirmed that the course li
on which I am setting the data is the same as the one on which I am looking for it. (Unless I'm messing that up by calling appendTo()
on it?)
