how to use delegate in the above function? Anyone can help?

Answer 1

You can solve this by calling .closest on $(this) inside the event handler:

$(document).delegate('.inputRadio', 'click', function () {
  var closestTd = $(this).closest('td');
  // some code
});

Note: You should use .on if your version of jQuery is >= 1.7 :

$(document).on('click', '.inputRadio', function () {
  var closestTd = $(this).closest('td');
  // some code
});
