I’ve recently been using Prototype 1.6 and had a need for a jQuery.live() clone. The following code appears to emulate mouse events well (form submits [and maybe more…] do not work in IE):
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 |
Event.live = function(s, e, f) { Event.observe(document, e, function(event) { if (Element.match(event.target, s)) { if (!(f.call(event.target, event))) { event.stop(); } } }); } |
To use this run something like the following:
|
1 2 3 |
Event.live('div#doesnt_exist_yet a.button', 'click', function() { // run this when the button is clicked }); |
Hope this helps!
