Two events at the same time

Question

I want to do some actions when class .smth is clicked

$('.smth').click(function() {

and when key is pressed:

$('.txt').bind('keypress', function(e) {

I want to do the same action, so how can I use them both with OR or something like that?

$('.log').click.or.$('.txt').bind('keypress', function(e) {

?

THank you.

Answer 1

If this was the same collection of elements you could use:

$(".myclass").bind("click keypress", function(event) {
    //...
});

But as it's different elements you'll have to follow Felix advice and write a function then attach it as the event handler.

Answer 2

Use a named function instead of an anonymous one.

function handler() {
    //...
}

$('.txt').keypress(handler);
$('.smth').click(handler);
