jQuery: Append new object to DIV and act on that new object
<p>I have a question that must be common but I dont know it.</p>

<p>If I append something (lets say SPAN) to a DIV, how can I act on that new SPAN at the same time?</p>

<pre><code>function makeRotatable($clone) {
    $($clone).before('&lt;span style="height:200px;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;').slider({
            orientation: "vertical",
            range: "min",
            min: 0,
            max: 100,
            value: 60,
            slide: function( event, ui ) {
                $( "#amount" ).val( ui.value );
            }
        });

}
</code></pre>

<p>What I want to do is act on that newly appended SPAN. But the slider is acting on the $clone instead. What am I doing wrong?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
