jQuery live handler but for each()?

I know that live() can be used to support event handlers for current AND "added later" DOM elements.

I wonder how to do the same thing with each()?

Like if I have $('.something_or_other').each() but then another DOM element with class="something_or_other" gets added? How can I set it up to automatically开发者_Go百科 apply the each iteration to this new DOM element?

OR, what can I call after adding the new DOM element to reapply the each() rules.

(Showing my age a bit here but in Behaviour we can use Behaviour.apply() to reapply ALL of the rules!)

As @meder noted, you should really just do this manually. You can use the same function for both if you like.

function myFunction(i,val) {
    $(this).doSomething;
}

$('someSelector').each( myFunction );

$.ajax({
    url:'/some/path/',
    success: function( data ) {
        $(data).find('someSelector').each( myFunction )
               .end().appendTo('body');
    }
});

If you really don't want to do that, there's a plugin called livequery that will run code when an element that matches a selector is added to (or removed from) the DOM.

It costs a bit of extra overhead, but it is an option.

Why can't you just bind the functionality to the ajax callback that appends the DOM elements to the doc? Seems the shortest and most logical route to me.
