jQuery: textbox keyup firing twice

Question

hi,

i'm having a textbox and assigned the following function (it's the only function assigned):

txt.bind("keyup",function(event){
    if(event.keyCode==13)
    {
        var nu = $("#debug").html();
        nu+="<br>enter";
        $("#debug").html(nu);
    }
});

the strange thing is that it's actually firing twice, thus displaying "enter" twice in my debug window. anyone who knows what is causing this?

thx

Answer 1

i found out by myself - txt.bind was assigned twice to the textbox so it fired twice. is this a bug? i thought binding a function will always fire just once .. hmm

Answer 2

could it be possible that your html-element is contained twice within txt?

it would be helpful if you would provide the html and the assigning javascript-code.
