Question

jquery, trigger, bind, strange parameter

Answer 1

+1 A:

If I understand your question correctly this should be what you are looking for:

$(function () {
    $(document).bind("EVENT", function (e) {
        console.log('bind', 
                    e.target // this is the DOM element that triggered the event
                             // the form in this case
                    e);
    });

    // Triggering can be simplified a lot
    $('form').trigger('EVENT');

});

sorry, i was not clear, i was wondering if i pass a parameter to the trigger function why i don't get back the same in the bind.

Answer 2

A:

The jQuery trigger documentation says that extra parameters should be passed in an array. So:

$(document).trigger("EVENT", [ element ])
