Cloning Nodes This time, we'll take a look at re-binding event handlers. <ul id="list3" class="eventlist"> <li>plain</li> <li class="special">special <button>I am special</button></li> <li>plain</li></ul> We can make a copy of <li class="special"> and insert it after the original, while at the same time retaining any event handlers that were attached within the original. JavaScript: $(document).ready(function(){ $('#list3 li.special button').click(function(){var $parent = $(this).parent(); });}); Try it: plain special plain Note: I've added .append(' I\'m a clone!
