onclick event on List of buttons is not working using JQuery

I am trying to add events on my buttons inside a list, but it appears that only the first button on the list is being registered with an onclick event. There are no errors shown, but I don't get why only the first part of the button is being registered with an event? Here it is:

<ul id = "button-list"> 
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "first"  name = "ltrContainer"   ></button>
    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "second" name = "ltrContainer"  ></button>
    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "third"  name = "ltrContainer"   ></button>
    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "fourth" name = "ltrContainer"  ></button>
    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "fifth" name = "ltrContainer"  ></button>
    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "sixth" name = "ltrContainer"   ></button>
    </li>
</ul>

only the first button is being registered with an event and here is my JQuery code

$('.buttons').click(function(){
    textContainer.value += this.innerHTML;
    alert(this.innerHTML);
});

$("#button-list .buttons").each(function () {
            $(this).bind("click", function() {
                //Put your code here
            });
});

Hope this helps...

    </li>
    <li>

    </li>
    <li>
        <button class = "buttons" id = "sixth" name = "ltrContainer"   >6</button>
