How to add an event handler on .clone element

I have a table row, which is clone from the parent..

Here is the code:

$(this).closest("tr").clone(true).off().attr("class", "newclass").appendTo("#comparelist");

and I also add this code:

  $(".newclass").hover(function () {
        alert("hello");
    });

The table row has been clone successfully, but it can't trigger the hover function..

Does anyone know why this is happen?

Thank You..

You need to delegate the event on that element, because that was created dynamically. So you can use live, deligate or on event binding methods. I recommend to use on method.

Here is the example.

$(document).on("mouseenter", ".newclass", function () {
    alert("hello");
});

Good Luck!

Use delegated event handlers

$("#comparelist").on({
   mouseenter : function () {
       alert("mouse entered");
   },
   mouseleave : function () {
       alert("mouse left");
   }
}, ".newclass");

and remove off()

var clone = $(this).closest("tr").clone(true);

clone.attr("class", "newclass");
clone.appendTo("#comparelist");

try this:

    $(document).on('hover', '.newclass', function () {
        alert("hello");
    });
