Detect Pagination Clicks (javascript)

[garrus]

Hey,

I'm looking for a way to detect when the pagination buttons are clicked by using javascript.

I've found this code for example that detects when a normal link is pressed:

$(document).on("click", "a", function() {
   //this == the link that was clicked
   var href = $(this).attr("href");
   alert("You're trying to go to " + href);
});

But this doesn't fire on the pagination buttons. I assume because they're queries on the current URL rather than moving to a different URL? I'm not very skilled in web development so I'm no doubt misunderstanding something.

Thanks for your help.




ps: the purpose behind it is that I have something that loads when the page is loaded/refreshed (which is expected) but I also want it to happen when the page of a thread changes.

The Proboards API defines some events one could use to hook their code into the process and listen then react when such events occur. pb.events.on('pageChage', function(){
//DO SOMETHING
})

Ah thanks! I was actually trying something similar to that code I found from another plugin's source, but other code I'd tried earlier was preventing it from happening for some reason.


All working now, thanks!
