capture click event of submit button jquery

Question

I am trying to get the click event of a submit button on my form...

Answer 1

You have to encase your code in a function..

$('#submitDemo').click(function(){
    alert("work darn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!")
    //$("#list").block({ message: '' })
});

But it is always a good practice to bind the event using on so that it attaches the event handler to the element when that is available.. So

$('#submitDemo').on('click',function(){
    alert("work darn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!")
    //$("#list").block({ message: '' })
});
