I have a script that generates a variable number of instances #id1 #id2 #id3... and so on. How do I code jQuery to work with them dynamically?

$("#id").click(function(){ ...

I’m stumped huh

Could someone point me in the right direction?

I suggest you assign a common class to all the instances and use that in the jQuery selector.

Good idea, ~~but they each need a unique ID because I am attaching a date UI widget for each one and it requires a unique id~~ I’ll be jazzed, it actually works with the class selector. I’ll test this some more but it may have resolve my problem. Thanks grin
