I have a popup in my application that is hidden when page is loaded and it appears only on click on a specific button. I have the following code inside my popup DOM
<a ng-click="settings();">welcome</a>
The same code works when i have it in my DOM that is visible when the page loads. But inside the popup, it does not work. It never goes inside the settings() function. Can anyone help me with this?
You should probably create a directive for it. See the documentation and this example. Notice that a scope is applied to the return value of the compilation, effectively var compiled=$compile(element.contents()); compiled($scope);.
Note that there is already a built-in include directive in Angular which might do what you want. The example there responds to changes in a drop down, though you could easily adjust it to respond to a click event.
