Problems with "change" in live()
in Using jQuery
•
10 years ago
IE8 does not recognize "change" for the "live()" function. I tried "delegate()", as well - no success. Does anybody have an idea how to remedy the situation without going back to livequery? Thank you!

Hi there,
To what node-types are you attaching that event?
Because AFAIK the change event is only relevant for <input> <textarea> and <select>.
Hope it helps,
Superficial.

Thank you for your response. I am using select. It works fine in Chrome and FF, just not in IE.

Hi there,
The change() demo works perfectly in my IE...
Maybe you're using an older version of jQuery?
Because the way IE reacts to change() was changed in 1.4
Hope it helps,
Superficial

another thing that would be helpful to know, are you adding any other event listeners to the same select element?

Hi Kevin, I only use the "change" event listener within live(). I run 1.4.2 by the way. Do you have any other idea? Thank you!

Thank you, gentlemen!
Change works for me, too...just not in combination with live().
Do you know of any working example? My JS looks fine on JSLINT. Thanks again for your efforts!

Well, I bound "change" using live() and it works in IE8...
Re: Re: Problems with "change" in live()

Thank you! Yes, it works. Might there be a difference when in my case the content is being read out by PHP? Do you see a problem with the following script I use? I really appreciate your help, thanks!!
- $("select.ad-cat").live('change', function() {
var nads_cat = $(".ad-cat").val();
loadAd = "http://www.mysite.com/n-ads.php";
loadAd = loadAd + "?ad-cat=" + nads_cat;
$(".accordionS").tabs("div.pane-acc", {tabs: 'h2',initialIndex: null});
$("div#n-ad").css(inline).load(loadAd);
});

Thanks, Šime! Yes, I could use $(this).val();, as well. Btw, if I choose"change" instead of "click" I can trigger an alert window with IE. Could this be a bug? Could you think of any workaround? Thank you again!

You have to use $(this).val() insted of $(".ad-cat").val() because the latter always returns the value of the first ".ad-cat" element on the page and not the value of the one that has been changed.
You can trigger alert() wherever you want, regardless of "click" "change" etc
Re: Re: Problems with "change" in live()

I changed to $(this).val() but it also worked before since I only have one ".ad-cat" element.
My point was that IE does not respond to "change" when I mentioned the alert window. The alert does not work with "change" but works with "click". "Change" apparently does not get recognized by IE. What else could I try?

Run your code in Firefox with Web Developer Toolbar.
If the last icon in the toolbar is a red circle, then you got a JavaScript error.
Check if your code is clean...

Thanks, Šime! I just added "Web Developer" to FF - no red circle - and no errors in Firebug. Is there anything else I could try?

Comment out all code in the handler function except the alert command...
$(".ad-cat").live("change", function() {
alert(1);
/*
all other code is in comments
*/
});
Test in Firefox, Chrome and IE8.
Which browsers show the alert-box?

Well, I already demonstrated that change bound with live works in IE8.
1. Is your code inside $(document).ready() ?
2. How does the HTML code for the SELECT element look like?
Re: Re: Problems with "change" in live()

- <select name="category" class="ad-cat cat">
- <option value="0">See All</option>
- <option value="4">Local Business</option>
- <option value="3">Events</option>
- <option value="5">Home for Sale</option>
- </select>
The code is inside $(document).ready().
Isn't it a difference when you create content on the fly vs. content which is already contained within the JS?
Thanks for your great help! (I wished someone could remove IE from all PC's..)

I think your demo works because it is using jQuery 1.4.4, however, aquery is working with 1.4.2 which appears that it doesn't work with IE8

There is something in your HTML or JS code that causes this to fail.
Can you put a demo of the issue online?

I responded in another thread with the same issue. I believe the issue appears in IE8 when there is also a click event delegated to the same parent element.
