  1. Simple Binding JS... Notes Most common binding Attaches the event

    handler to every matched elements Doesn’t work for dynamic elements added later on (such as ajax)
  2. Live() JS... Notes Similar syntax Binding still works when dynamic

    elements added later on Attached the event handler to “document” once StopPropagation not working already because the event is propagated to the root to handle already Have performance issues
  3. Delegate() JS... Notes Only bind to selected root element The

    event still propagated from target element to selected root element, but it is much better than live()
  4. On() bind(), live() and delegate() just become one line call

    in jQuery 1.7, as well as their unbinding methods
