Re-binding jQuery Events on AJAX Callbacks

Posted by Jetlogs @ 1:48 pm

Or the title can be put shortly as: Why doesn’t my jQuery events work after an AJAX callback?

Lets create a very simple example jQuery script which simply changes a list’s class on hover:

We’ll assign red as the hover color:

<style type="text/css">
.hover
{
	color: #f00;
}
</style>

Then add the jQuery hover() event to toggle/change the list’s class when the mouse hovers over the list. This is how the javascript code will look like inside the document.ready() function:

$("li").hover(
function()
{
	$(this).toggleClass("hover");
},
function()
{
	$(this).toggleClass("hover");
});

Crunch Time

Sorry for the lack of updates, but my work schedule is a bit tight so the updates might be few and far in between. But once the project is released, updates will resume to normal. It certainly has been a long time since I’ve written a tutorial so expect one once crunch time is finished.

Latest Cast of FFXIII Revealed

The latest member of the cast for FF13 has been revealed.

In a somewhat deja vu move by Square-Enix, they have once again included a character of African descent into the main cast. Remember the last time this happened (Kiros is not a main cast)? It seems that they are trying to recreate the chemistry of FF7′s cast.

However, what’s different is that instead of a huge tough guy, they went the opposite direction and made him more likeable and charismatic character than Barret at first sight:

Who couldn’t resist a guy sporting an Afro and having a cute Chicobo calling him daddy (父)?


Gaming Media is Dying

EGM is dead
1UP has been sold to Hearst and many were fired

These are just the latest casualties, and they certainly wouldn’t be the last.
The only question is who is next?

The economic recession is not really the direct cause of this. It only accelerated the downfall of the disrupted industries like gaming magazines and other traditional media.
They have already been in the decline long before this recession.

You can already feel this happening when gaming media became more obsessed in becoming a giant Ad catalog rather than providing content that readers want. When was the last time you’ve read a gaming magazine that isn’t 50% filler ads?

Instead of the treating the readers as the customers, most gaming media have decided that the game publishers are their primary customers instead.

Even though the gaming market has vastly expanded, the gaming media failed to follow suit. Their unwillingness to follow the wave of disruption caused consumer disinterest on the new audience, while the recent fiasco on the journalistic integrity of the gaming media itself caused distrust on their core readers. Not to mention that information on games magazines have been consistently out of date for quite some time now.

With the new audience ignoring gaming magazines,
and the old audience treating the magazines as an afterthought,
these gaming media companies left themselves with basically no audience alienating both their old and new readers.

At least for some of these gaming media, its better to be cool and out of business than become successful and mainstream… OH WAIT!
