i wonder why in the following example, trying to detach an element (li) causes the form containing it to submit
html
<form id="frmToDo" name="frmToDo">
<p id="lineInput">
...
<input type="submit" id="btnSubmit" value="Add" />
</p>
<ul id="todolist">
<!-- added in ajax -->
</ul>
</form>
JS
$("#frmToDo").submit(function() {
// this runs after: $("#todolist").detach(...)
});
$("#todolist").delegate("li[id^=task-] button", "click", function() {
$("#todolist").detach($($(this).parent()).id());
return false;
});
