Jquery add listener to added content

I have jQuery code as follows:

$("#add").click(function(event){ $("#list").append('<a class="remove" href="#">x</a>'); return false; }); $('.remove').live('click', function(){ alert("123"); });

If I click on the class = delete, I would like it to notify 123. However, this does not happen. I think this is a simple idea, but I am missing something.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Live is out of date, use

 $(document).on('click','.remove',function(){ alert("123"); });

Another way to add an element and bind an event without delegation:

 $("#add").click(function(event){ $("<a />", { "class": "remove", href: "#", text: "x" }).on("click", function() { alert("123"); return false; }).appendTo("#list"); return false; });

Avoid using the live method as it is deprecated and permanently deleted in the latest version of jQuery.

try the delegation function. Since you use this for list ... you can use #list , which is better in performance than document

  $('#list').on('click','.remove', function(){ alert("123"); });
