Edit Question
Title
Body
I'm a bit confused regarding the dollar sign in jQuery, and was hoping someone could help me out. I have the following function declaration: $(function() { $( "#create-discussion" ).button().click(function() { alert("Clicked"); }); $( "#listitems tr" ).click(function(event) { alert("clicked"); }); }); For some reason, the first function declaration for the "create-discussion" button works perfectly; when clicked, a popup appears. However, the second one does not work, and no popup is generated when I click on the table rows. Is this some nuance in regards to button onClicks versus table row onClicks? Am I missing something stupidly obvious? Also, I think it would help a bunch if someone explained what $(function() {}) actually does, as I'm treating it like $(document).ready() , and I'm not sure if I can do that.
