To bind event to an element using jQuery is very easy task.
See the following examples,
$('#foo').bind('click', function() {
// other stuff
});
You can also call external function like below,
function clickEvent()
{
alert('Clicked');
}
$('#foo').bind('click', clickEvent);
Another way to bind event,
$('#foo').click(clickEvent);
or you can write inline function like below,
$('#foo').click(function(){
alert('Clicked');
});
