Detecting clicks on AJAX injected content must reference the parent element, not just the ID or CLASS that is being clicked.

In this case, the AJAX content is injected as HTML into the parent-element div. There are two lines of example AJAX content.

<div id="parent-element">
<span class="some-class" data-something="This is something">Ajax content, Click Me 1</span>
<span class="some-class" data-something="This is something else">Ajax content, Click Me 2</span>
</div>

<script>
$("#parent-element").on('click', '.some-class', function(){
		var $el = $(this);	
  	alert('something:' + $el.data('something'));
});
</script>

In this case we are detecting a click on a class called some-class but it could also be an ID #some-class

The alert will display whatever is in the data-something attribute.
