I am unable to find a solution for this Table that I am cloning with JQuery. I am able to clone the table and update the ID and NAME properties to avoid html conflicts. The Select drop-down only triggers an event to its JQuery when I use the first (original) copy of the table. However, the cloned version does not trigger the required event that I am using to fill-in the Description Quantity and Price fields. I am posting my Table and JQuery. Can someone please let me know what I am missing to get this to work? I tested the JQuery by creating two tables with their respective Unique IDs that I use to trigger the event, which works fine. Then, when I use JQuery to clone the Table, the Event is not triggered.

The JQuery that performs the clone and updates the ID and NAME properties:
<script>
var template = $('#sections .section:first').clone();
var sectionsCount = 1;
$('body').on('click', '.addsection', function () {
sectionsCount++;
var section = template.clone().find(':input').each(function () {
var newId = this.id.substring(0, this.id.length - 1) + sectionsCount;
var newName = this.name.substring(0, this.name.length - 1) + sectionsCount;
this.id = newId;
this.name = newName;
}).end()
.appendTo('#sections');
return false;
});
//remove section
$('#sections').on('click', '.remove', function () {
$(this).parent().fadeOut(300, function () {
$(this).parent().parent().empty();
return false;
});
return false;
});
</script>
Finally, the JQuery that listen to the Event to fill-in the remaining fields when I select a Product.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#ProductCode1').on("change", function () { alert("It Works!") });
$('#ProductCode2').on("change", function () { alert("It Works again!") });
$('#ProductCode3').on("change", function () { alert("It Works a third time!") });
});
</script>
jQuery code inside $(document).ready() function will work only for available DOM elements when page loaded
So in order to make it work for dynamically cloned dropdowns update your jQuery binding code like this:
This:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#ProductCode1').on("change", function () { alert("It Works!") });
$('#ProductCode2').on("change", function () { alert("It Works again!") });
$('#ProductCode3').on("change", function () { alert("It Works a third time!") });
});
To This:
$(document).on('change', '#ProductCode1', function(){ alert("It Works!") });
$(document).on('change', '#ProductCode2', function(){ alert("It Works again!") });
$(document).on('change', '#ProductCode3', function(){ alert("It Works a third time!") });
