[jQuery] triggering a link event that has an image tag?
I've been trying to setup a lightbox (or similar) plugin to work with
my images, but am having problems due to the <a> tag trigger not
firing. It appears that this is because jquery is triggering the
<img> event instead of the <a> event. For example:
The first one is called when I click the thumbnail, but not the second
(which is the one that I want to be called).
jQuery(".flickr-photo a img")
.livequery("click", function() {
alert('img click');
});
jQuery(".flickr-photo a")
.livequery("click", function() {
alert('a click');
});
<div class="flickr-photo">
<a href="blah_thumbnail.jpg"><img src="blah_big.jpg" /></a>
</div>
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? It doesn't seem to be an issue
with livequery as far as I can tell.
