jQuery with Meteor.js [Template.name.rendered]

Question

i've read that when you have Template.name.rendered = function(){ ... } You can use regular jQuery code in it.

I am trying to make it possible to when a user post a comment, the post either slides down or pops up depending on what i put in the jQuery code..

Here is what i have so far

 Template.posts.rendered = function(){ if (!this.rendered){ function setEvents(){ $(".posts").on("click", function(){ $(this).slideDown(750); }); }; var init = function(){ setEvents(); }(); this.rendered = true; } }; 

Answer 1

The Meteoric way of doing this is using Template events

Template.posts.events({
  'click': function(){
    $(".posts").slideDown(750);
  }
});
