Title
Body
I have a render method in Backbone that goes basically like this: render: function () { $.tmpl(this.template, attrs).appendTo(this.el); return this; }, which is called from a router action: action: function () { $('#container').empty(); $('#container').append(myView.render().el); }, Now, I want to apply a plugin on label elements inside this view. My first thought was to call the plugin inside render : render: function () { $.tmpl(this.template, attrs).appendTo(this.el); this.$('label').inFieldLabels(); return this; }, but this doesn't work (I'm assuming this is because the element hasn't been added to the DOM yet). It does work if I call the plugin in the router action though: action: function () { $('#container').empty(); $('#container').append(myView.render().el); myView.$('label').inFieldLabels(); }, I'd rather not do this, because the plugin is part of the view, not the router, so it doesn't make sense to be calling it inside the action. Is there a better way to do this?
