Okay, the answer is probably obvious to you that are old hands at jQuery, but I'm not seeing it. I finally figured out that if I load new content via AJAX:
$(document).ready(function(e){ ... exp_iphone_get_sales(); }); function exp_iphone_get_sales() { ... $('#transactions').hide().load(url).fadeIn(); } I also need to rebind the click/tap (I'm using jQTouch) events to the new content: function exp_iphone_get_sales() { ... $('#transactions').hide().load(url).fadeIn(); $('#transactions ul li a').bind('click tap', exp_iphone_get_trans); } Unfortunately, clicking on one of the transactions: <div id="transactions"> <ul class="rounded"> <li class="arrow"><a href="#transaction" id="7U735587N3003591E" class="slide">...</a></li> ... </ul> </div> doesn't execute exp_iphone_get_trans(). And, oddly, when the page loads, exp_iphone_get_trans() *is* executed -- no click or tap needed. Using jQ 1.3.2; I also tried $('#transactions ul li a').live('click tap', exp_iphone_get_trans()); to no avail. Any suggestions?
