[ACCEPTED]-Twitter Bootstrap onclick event on buttons-radio-jquery-events

This is a really annoying one. What I ended 6 up using is this:

First, create a group of 5 simple buttons with no data-toggle attribute.

<div id="selector" class="btn-group">
    <button type="button" class="btn active">Day</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn">Week</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn">Month</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn">Year</button>
</div>

Next, write 4 an event handler that simulates the radio 3 button effect by 'activating' the clicked 2 one and 'deactivating' all other buttons. (EDIT: Integrated 1 Nick's cleaner version from the comments.)

$('#selector button').click(function() {
    $(this).addClass('active').siblings().removeClass('active');

    // TODO: insert whatever you want to do with $(this) here
});

I see a lot of complicated answers, while 4 this is super simple in Bootstrap 3:

Step 3 1: Use the official example code to create your radio button group, and 2 give the container an id:

<div id="myButtons" class="btn-group" data-toggle="buttons">
  <label class="btn btn-primary active">
    <input type="radio" name="options" id="option1" autocomplete="off" checked> Radio 1 (preselected)
  </label>
  <label class="btn btn-primary">
    <input type="radio" name="options" id="option2" autocomplete="off"> Radio 2
  </label>
  <label class="btn btn-primary">
    <input type="radio" name="options" id="option3" autocomplete="off"> Radio 3
  </label>
</div>

Step 2: Use this 1 jQuery handler:

$("#myButtons :input").change(function() {
    console.log(this); // points to the clicked input button
});

Try the fiddle demo

I would use a change event not a click like 1 this:

$('input[name="name-of-radio-group"]').change( function() {
  alert($(this).val())
})

For Bootstrap 3 the default radio/button-group structure 2 is :

<div class="btn-group" data-toggle="buttons">
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option1"> Option 1
    </label>
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option2"> Option 2
    </label>
    <label class="btn btn-primary">
        <input type="radio" name="options" id="option3"> Option 3
    </label>
</div>

And you can select the active one like 1 this:

$('.btn-primary').on('click', function(){
    alert($(this).find('input').attr('id'));
}); 

Don't use data-toggle attribute so that 6 you can control the toggle behavior by yourself. So 5 it will avoid 'race-condition'

my codes:

button 4 group template (written in .erb, embedded 3 ruby for ruby on rails):

<div class="btn-group" id="featuresFilter">
     <% _.each(features, function(feature) { %> <button class="btn btn-primary" data="<%= feature %>"><%= feature %></button> <% }); %>
</div>

and javascript:

onChangeFeatures = function(e){
        var el=e.target;
        $(el).button('toggle');

        var features=el.parentElement;
        var activeFeatures=$(features).find(".active");
        console.log(activeFeatures);
}

onChangeFeatures 2 function will be triggered once the button 1 is clicked.

I needed to do the same thing for a chart 5 where you could select the period of the 4 data that should be displayed.

Therefore 3 I introduced the CSS class 'btn-group-radio' and 2 used the following unobtrusive javascript 1 one-liner:

// application.js
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.btn-group-radio .btn').click(function() {
    $(this).addClass('active').siblings('.btn').removeClass('active');
  });
});

And here is the HTML:

<!-- some arbitrary view -->
<div class="btn-group btn-group-radio">
  <%= link_to '1W', charts_path('1W'), class: 'btn btn-default active', remote: true %>
  <%= link_to '1M', charts_path('1M'), class: 'btn btn-default', remote: true %>
  <%= link_to '3M', charts_path('3M'), class: 'btn btn-default', remote: true %>
  <%= link_to '6M', charts_path('6M'), class: 'btn btn-default', remote: true %>
  <%= link_to '1Y', charts_path('1Y'), class: 'btn btn-default', remote: true %>
  <%= link_to 'All', charts_path('all'), class: 'btn btn-default', remote: true %>
</div>

Looking at the example HTML for radio buttons 7 on the Twitter Bootstrap page (http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/base-css.html#forms), you can 6 see that each input has a unique ID attribute, i.e. optionsRadios1 and 5 optionsRadios2.

The relevant HTML example snippet is included 4 here for completeness:

<div class="controls">
  <label class="radio">
    <input type="radio" checked="" value="option1" id="optionsRadios1" name="optionsRadios">
    Option one is this and that&mdash;be sure to include why it's great
  </label>
  <label class="radio">
    <input type="radio" value="option2" id="optionsRadios2" name="optionsRadios">
    Option two can is something else and selecting it will deselect option one
  </label>
</div>

So you can use a jQuery 3 click event, and then use the this reference 2 to look at the id of the HTML element that 1 was clicked.

$('.controls').find('input').bind('click',function(event){
  if($(this).attr('id')==='optionsRadios1'){
    alert($(this).attr('id'));
  } else {
    //... call some other function
  }
});

If your html is similar to the example, so 2 the click event is produced over the label, not 1 in the input, so I use the next code: Html example:

<div id="myButtons" class="btn-group" data-toggle="buttons">
  <label class="btn btn-primary active">
    <input type="radio" name="options" id="option1" autocomplete="off" checked> Radio 1 (preselected)
  </label>
  <label class="btn btn-primary">
    <input type="radio" name="options" id="option2" autocomplete="off"> Radio 2
  </label>      
</div>

Javascript code for the event:

$('#option1').parent().on("click", function () {
   alert("click fired"); 
});

I searched so many pages: I found a beautiful 1 solution. Check it out:
