Viewed 66

I've got a custom checkbox but my problem is that when I create with Ajax call the second div #test_checkbox_ajax jquery to select the checked input doesn't work, but the first div #test_checkbox and it's Jquery work perfectly. I need that the div create with Ajax call because most of my code work with Ajax call. How can I solve this? Anyone can help me please? if there is some question similar can you repot me so that I can try to get the solution. Thank You Very Much in Advance.

$(window).load(function() {
  $.when(loadProfile()).done(function(res){
    addProfile(res);
  }).fail(function(resp) {
    if(resp.status!=408) {
      //error
    } else {
      //other
    }
  });
});

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#test_checkbox input').on('click', function() {  //this work perfectly
    console.log('enter');
    if ($(this).is(":checked")) {
      alert('checked');
    } else {
      alert('not checked');
    }
  });
  
  $('#test_checkbox_ajax input').on('click', function() { //this not work why??
    console.log('enter');
    if ($(this).is(":checked")) {
      alert('checked');
    } else {
      alert('not checked');
    }
  });
});

function loadProfile() {
  return $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "GESINTRANET",
    data: "TPMAP=INSEGN"
  });
}

function addProfile(res) {
  $('#test_checkbox_ajax').empty();
  $('#test_checkbox_ajax').append('<label class="custom_single_label">Area</label>');
  $.each(res.aree, function(i, area) {
    $('#test_checkbox_ajax').append('<label class="custom_single_checkbox_container">' + area.nome + '<input type="checkbox" class="custom_checkbox" value="' + area.id + '"><span class="custom_checkbox_span"></span></label>');
  });

Attach your event handler to the document or any appropriate parent element which is not being updated with ajax update. Refer Delegated event handlers section in on() documentation page.
For example, change

$('#test_checkbox input').on('click', function() {  //this work perfectly
    console.log('enter');
    if ($(this).is(":checked")) {
      alert('checked');
    } else {
      alert('not checked');
    }
  });

to

$(document).on('click','#test_checkbox input', function() {  //this work perfectly
    console.log('enter');
    if ($(this).is(":checked")) {
      alert('checked');
    } else {
      alert('not checked');
    }
  });

Edit:
As per the suggestion of @WernerPotgieter attached listener to document instead of body. Though I have added an example with event listener attached to document we should avoid excessive use of document or body for delegated events on large documents and must attach the listener to a location as close as possible to the target element for better performance.
