jQuery .on() event handler optimization guide for dynamically added elements in a DataTable
I'm trying to implement I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about I'm using jQuery version 3.6.0 along with DataTables to manage an interactive table in my application... I've set up a click event using the `.on()` method to toggle a modal when a button in a table row is clicked. However, this event handler doesn't seem to work for rows that are added dynamically after the initial page load. I've tried binding the event directly to the table, but it only works for rows that were present when the page was first loaded. Here’s the code I’m currently using: ```javascript $(document).ready(function() { $('#myTable').DataTable({ // DataTable initialization options }); $('#myTable').on('click', '.my-button', function() { // Open modal logic $('#myModal').modal('show'); }); }); ``` I also attempted to use delegation by specifying the parent element with `.on()`, but I still encounter the scenario. The buttons in the dynamically added rows simply do not trigger the click event. When I check in the console, there are no errors or warnings, which adds to the confusion. I've verified that the buttons exist after the rows are added, and they have the correct class. Here’s how I’m populating the table with new rows: ```javascript function addRow(data) { var table = $('#myTable').DataTable(); table.row.add([ data.id, data.name, '<button class="my-button">Open Modal</button>' ]).draw(); } ``` I've also looked into potential issues regarding the timing of the event attachment, but I'm not sure how to resolve this. Any suggestions on how to ensure that the event handlers for dynamically created elements work as intended? This is part of a larger web app I'm building. Has anyone dealt with something similar?
