Nothing       content   click function e          alert 1         Will bind to an existing HTML element with the ID set to content  and will show a message box on click    Make sure that  content exists before using that code That the ID is unique Check your Javascript console for any errors or issues

Wrap the code in   document  ready   method or         function         content   click function e          alert 1

Make sure it s within a document ready tagAlternatively  try using  live    document  ready function             content   live  click   function e              alert 1                 Example    x000D   x000D    document  ready function     x000D          content   click function e      x000D        alert 1   x000D          x000D      x000D   content   x000D      padding  20px  x000D      background  blue  x000D    x000D   lt script src  https   ajax googleapis com ajax libs jquery 1 8 3 jquery min js  gt  lt  script gt  x000D   lt div id  content  gt Hello world lt  div gt  x000D   x000D   x000D    As of jQuery 1 7  the  live   method is deprecated  Use  on   to attach event handlers       content   on   click   function         alert 1

May the div with id  content  not be created when this event is attached  You can try live   jquery method   Else there may be multiple divs with the same id or you just spelled it wrong  it happens

Check out this fiddle     you re doing it correctly  Make sure the id is content and also check to see there are no other elements with the same id  If there are multiple elements with the same id  it will bind to the first one  That might be why you arn t seeing it
