Not able to delete list which dynamically created with jquery.
- by shin
I have two html here. The first one is dynamically generated by php and second one is just html to test.
I also have the following jquery.
When I click a cross with class delete in the second ones(plain html), it works nicely. However when I click a cross in the first ones, it does not work.
It redirect me to the home page with # at the end.
I am hoping someone point out what I am doing wrong.
Thank in advance.
HTML
First part (dyanmicall generated)
<ul style="display: block;" id="message">
<li class="41">
<span class="user"><strong>shin</strong></span>
<span class="msg"> delete this as well</span>
<span class="date">2010-01-15 07:47:31</span>
<a href="#" id="41" class="delete">x</a>
<div class="clear"></div></li>
<li class="40">
<span class="user"><strong>shin</strong></span>
<span class="msg"> delete me as well</span>
<span class="date">2010-01-14 16:01:44</span>
<a href="#" id="40" class="delete">x</a>
<div class="clear"></div></li>
...
...</ul>
Second part which is plain html
<ul id="another">
<li><a href="#">you can't delete me</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="delete">delete this</a></li>
<li><a href="#" class="delete">delete this</a></li>
</ul>
Here is jquery
$(".delete").click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
loading.fadeIn();
var commentContainer = $(this).parent();
var id = $(this).attr("id");
// var string = 'id='+ id ;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "index.php/admin/messages/changestatus/"+id,
// data: string,
cache: false,
success: function(){
commentContainer.slideUp('slow', function() {$(this).remove();});
loading.fadeOut();
}
});
return false;
});
I am using CodeIgniter by the way.
