add/remove active class for ul list with jquery?

Question

I'm trying to remove and set an active class for a list item every time it's clicked. It's currently removing the selected active class but isn't setting it. Any idea what I'm missing? HTML ```

``` jquery: ``` $('.nav-list').click(function() { //console.log("Clicked"); $('.nav-list li.active').removeClass('active'); $(this).addClass('active'); }); ```

Accepted Answer

`this` will point to the `<ul>` selected by `.nav-list`. You can use delegation instead!

```
$('.nav-list').on('click', 'li', function() {
    $('.nav-list li.active').removeClass('active');
    $(this).addClass('active');
});
```
