Dependencies

    • Element.Event
    • Selectors

How to use

This is the most simple example how you can use this Element.Delegation

document.body.addDelegate('click','a',function(){
    // do it!
});

More advanced Selector example

document.id('myElement').addDelegate('click','a[href^=mailto:]',function(){
    // so you want to mail someone ?
});

More delegates

document.id('myElement').addDelegates({
    'click': {
        'a[href^=mailto:]': function(){
            // so you want to mail someone ?
        },
        'a[a.email]': function(){
            // Do something else
        }

    },
    'mouseover': {
        'p': function(){
            // You hovered a paragraph
        }
    }
});

Remove delegates

var fn = function(){};
document.id('myElement').addDelegate('click','a',fn);   
document.id('myElement').removeDelegate('click','a',fn);

Remove more than one at the time

var fn = function(){};
document.id('myElement').addDelegate('click','a',fn);   
document.id('myElement').removeDelegate({
    'click': {
        'a': fn
    }
});

Add delegates to a new Element

new Element('div',{
    delegates: {
        'click': {
            'input:checked': function(e){
                // Your code
            }
        }
    }
});
