Hi,
I also think delegation is the better approach.
However, I did notice that none of the examples was dealing with the
case where the user click on something that is not a '.item'.
You may want to do something like this:
function doIt(e) {
var element = e.findElement('.item');
if(element != document)
{
var id = element.id;
// Do your stuffs here
}
}
