title: addthis-button loses click-eventhandler after jquery clone()
body: <p>all</p>
  
  <p>my problem is as follows:</p>
  
  <p>I have a page containing an addthis-button. Normally, a click opens a small menu.</p>
  
  <p>At some point, parts of this page - including the addthis-button - get cloned (via jQuery) and reused on the same page.</p>
  
  <p>If I click on the cloned button, the menu doesn't open, and an addthis page is loaded.</p>
  
  <p>So, apparently the eventhandler gets lost, and the button (which is really an &lt;a&gt;) reverts to being a link and displays the linked page.</p>
  
  <p>So how can I re-register the events of the cloned button?</p>
  
  <p>ETA: To clarify: I want to clone <code>addthis_button</code> complete with everything <code>addthis_widget.js</code> did to it.
  <code>mylittlebutton</code> and its clickhandler <code>clickedhim()</code> are irrelevant for the problem, they only trigger the cloning of <code>addthis_button</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I'd be grateful if some could point me in the right direction
  Also, I have a 20-line snippet that illustrates this, if that helps.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
  
  <p>ETA:
  the code snippet:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;script src='../../js/lib/jquery-1.6.2.js' type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  
  &lt;!-- up to here, the original button is initialized --&gt;
  &lt;a class="addthis_button addthis_button" href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250"&gt;
    &lt;img src="../../resources/img/button_share.gif" width="59" height="17" alt="Bookmark and Share" style="border:0"/&gt;
  &lt;/a&gt;
  &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  
  
  &lt;br /&gt;
  
  &lt;!-- button to trigger the cloning --&gt;
  &lt;input type="button" id="mylittlebutton" onclick="clickedhim(this);" value="CLICK ME" /&gt;
  
  &lt;script type="text/javascript" &gt;
  function clickedhim(eventtarget) {
    var nearest_addthis = $(eventtarget).siblings("a.addthis_button");
    // clone button, and insert it after the original
    nearest_addthis.after(nearest_addthis.clone());
  }
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
