Backbone.js multiple delegates to view

No, you cannot do this. From the exact guide :

Events are recorded in the format {"event selector": "callback"}

event

is implicitly a single word (as in jQuery and DOM events), whereas selector

can be any jQuery style selector. Additionally, the keys in are this.events

parsed using this regex :

var delegateEventSplitter = /^(\S+)\s*(.*)$/;

      

        
        
        
      

    

therefore it event

is the first component and only the first component.

You can create the object yourself events

and call it delegateEvents

manually as follows:

var catch  = ['keyup', 'keydown', 'focusin', 'focusout', 'click'];
var events = { };
_(catch).each(function(ev) { events[ev + ' .text-input'] = 'textEvents' });
this.delegateEvents(events);
