JavaScript closures. Access in loop to current i, j variables [duplicate]

Answer 1

I would store the indexes as attributes and add a single click handler to the table :

var tableHtml = '';

for(var i=0; i<5; i++) {
    tableHtml += '';

    for (var j=0; j<5; j++) {
        tableHtml += '';
    }

    tableHtml += '';
}

$('table').append(tableHtml).on('click', 'td', function(ev) {
    var i = this.getAttribute('data-i'),
        j = this.getAttribute('data-j');
});
