How do you handle animations on dynamically created elements?

Senior JQuery
Quick Answer Animations on dynamic elements: use event delegation or initialize the animation in the AJAX success callback for newly added elements. Use CSS animations with class toggling where possible - they work on dynamically added elements without re-initialization. For jQuery .animate(), always call it on the newly appended element reference, not on a stale cached variable.

Answer

Use delegated event handlers.
Apply animations after inserting elements.
