I putting together a page that will display a set of stored values. I am using mootools and AJAX calls to update the values without needing to refresh the page each time the user selects a new item from the drop down menus.
the HTML each line looks something like:
<div class="selections">
<input class="checkbox selector" type="checkbox" CHECKED />
<span class="b_name">
<select class="b_n selector">
<!-- options -->
</select>
</span>
<span class="b_level">
<select class="b_l selector">
<!-- options -->
</select>
</span>
<span class="values">
<!-- the values -->
</span>
In the head I have set up an event listener like:
$$('.selector').addEvent('change', function(event){changeValues(this);});
My problem is that when the "b_name" select changes I have to update the list of options in the "b_level" select. I accomplish that by getting a list of the possible options from my database through a php script on another page and replacing "b_level"'s innerHTML. Once I do that, the event listener attached to "b_l selector" no longer works.
I tried to resolve this issue by explicitly attaching an event listener to "b_l selector" each time "b_name" changes like so:
row.getElement('.b_l').addEvent('change', function(event){changeValues(row.getElement('.b_l'));});
where 'row' is the html element 'div.selections'.
It still isn't working and I have no idea what's going on. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to how I can get this resolved? or perhaps a better way to do what I'm doing.
Thanks
