event is not defined in FireFox, but ok in Chrome and IE
click, events, javascript, jquery
Solution
In IE and Chrome, `event` is resolving to `window.event`. Firefox doesn't have this property and instead provides an event to an event handler function by passing it as a parameter. jQuery abstracts this difference for you by providing an event object parameter in all browsers:
$("<a />")
.append("demo")
.click(function (evt) { DemoFunc(evt, value.Id) });
Problem
I generate HTML using jQuery: ``` $("<a />") .append("demo") .click(function () { DemoFunc(event, value.Id) }) ``` This works perfect for Chrome and IE8, but in FireFox I got an error: "event is not defined". I changed the code like this: ``` .attr("onclick", "DemoFunc(event, " + value.Id + ")") ``` It works for Firefox, but not for Chrome and IE. ``` DemoFunc = function (e, assocGroupId) { var target = (e.target) ? $(e.target) : $(e.srcElement); .... } ``` Why!? Help!!
