Javascript onclick stops working, multiple dynamically created divs.
- by Patrick
I have run into a strange problem, i am creating a lot of dynamically divs. And i recently found out that some of my divs doesn't fire the onclick event? All the divs are created using the same template, so why are some not working? Most of the time, its the 4-5 from the bottom. If you click on one of the others and then try again, you might get one of those to trigger. But only sporadically.
Code to create the divs:
GameField.prototype.InitField = function(fieldNumber) {
var newField = document.createElement("div");
if (fieldNumber == 0 || fieldNumber == 6 || fieldNumber == 8 || fieldNumber == 17)
newField.className = 'gameCellSmall borderFull gameText gameTextAlign';
else
newField.className = 'gameCellSmall borderWithoutTop gameText gameTextAlign';
var instance = this;
if (fieldNumber == 6 || fieldNumber == 7 || fieldNumber == 17) { }
else
newField.onclick = function() { instance.DivClick(fieldNumber); return false; }
this.fields[fieldNumber] = newField;
this.score[fieldNumber] = 0;
return newField;
}
I added the return false to the click function, but it still behaves strangely. Why are some not triggering? I create around 18 divs / player. But it happens even if i just create one player.
Do i perhaps need to cancel the event once i am done with it? (Like the return false; is trying to do)
