I think I figured this out. I needed to unbind the click event each
time a new link is clicked, so:
$("a.test").click(function() {
var location = $(this).attr("rel");
$("#test2").unbind('click');
$("#test2").click(function() {
var answer = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this
asset?");
if (answer) { $("#textTest").text(location); }
});
});
It seems to work how I want, is this the best method?
