For some strange reason, whenever I have a selector and expect to get multiple items, jQuery is only returning the first item, instead of the entire collection.
This is the HTML I have:
<a id="reply-424880" class="reply" href="#" rel="nofollow">Reply</a>
<a id="reply-424885" class="reply" href="#" rel="nofollow">Reply</a>
And the selector:
$('.reply').unbind('click').click(function(event) {
...
}
I have tried debugging using FireBug, and still get the same results. Using the work around I can get it to work:
$('a').each(function (index, element) {
if ($(element).attr('class') == 'reply') {
$(this).unbind('click').click(function(event) {
...
});
}
});
I would like to use the built-in functionality instead of my work around. Any idea why only the first element would be returned?
