API Bjax

You can instantiate the Bjax also through a classic way:

// Collect settings from element
new Bjax($('[data-bjax']));

// Set settings manually
new Bjax({
  'target': '#target',
  'element': '#element',
  'url': '/page'
});

// Mixed
new Bjax($('[data-bjax']), {
  'target': '#target',
  'element': '#element'
});

Bind bjax manually:

$('[data-bjax]').on('click', function(e){
    new Bjax(this);
    e.preventDefault();
});

// Live bind
$(document).on('click', '[data-bjax]', function(e){
    new Bjax(this);
    e.preventDefault();
});

Onclick attribute

<a href="content.html" onclick="new Bjax(this); return false;">Link</a>
